How about don't have kids so you can work more and more flexible hours on demand in aspiration of a fabricated idea of a career

I'm not a fan of utalitarianism myelf, so this might be wrong; this sounds like utalitarianism - as the action you did cause other suffering.

then in your moral philosophy, are all actions that cause suffering (and joy, and all other feelings a human can experience) morally wrong?

Is then not dating, f.ex Morally wrong?

Or is it the impossibility of consent? Yes, a child is unable to consent to being born. Just as we are all unable to consent to the world being created, or nature's whims. I cannot consent to a state on the other side of the world making policies, but I can still react and do things about it.

Is it morally wrong to let animals have children?

If one animal species is harming an ecosystem then I don't see how it's morally wrong to limit their reproduction.

Stupid people have the most kids, that's how you know the world is full of idiots. Ocassionaly though you meet a really nice humble person that will make you think positive towards people again atleast for a while... Even better if you carry their torch and continue with those good vibes towards others. Gives you that touch of there's genuinely good people still out there. Its refreshing.

If only bad people have children, what will happen?

this comment section is a hell of a ride, but i'll just state what seems to be a pretty significant thing that everyone just merrily sails past:

Y'all remember that saying of "it takes a village to raise a child"? That's why modern parenting sucks, we don't tend to have villages to help raise our children anymore. We're not meant to raise kids with maybe at best our partner and some assistance from their grandparents and kindergarden/school, we're meant to share that load and responsibility among like at least a dozen people and kids are meant to constantly have access to other kids to play with and collectively learn what boundaries are.

It's funny to think that modern humans have been around for tens of thousands of years but we're only ~80 years of infertility away from global extinction.
