I remember my father telling me (probably slightly after my first son was born, great timing indeed!), it would have been a pity to gave birth to someone in this timeline.

Period was around 2010/11, I thought he was just extreme and depressed. Today I can’t really say he was wrong. We western people are just going to see a colossal crash and I feel bad having my kids as a spectator for that.

Thx for your passionate answer.

I get your point, but due my actual state of mind I can’t really follow you.

I feel that having child is a selfish behavior, nobody asked you to do that (except society), universe would be fine either way and probably better if you don’t. We live in a wonderful planet and still we’re destroying it.

Let me say it with Carl Sagans words:

“We are a way for the Cosmos to know itself.”
