Is it cruel to have children?

eschaton [Edit] [Delete] 11:39, 10 November '08

Not to get too creakyknees on all y'all, but what with the impending ecological meltdown thats facing our planet and numerous other man-made crises, do you ever feel that its cruel to purposely bring children into the world? They're the ones who are going to have to deal with the full extent of all our current problems, so is making our kids live in some water-starved dystopia not pretty unfair? I don't completely believe this scenario by the way, but at the same time I can't help but think sometimes that introducing more children to the world is unfair both on them and everyone else inhabiting the planet at that point in time. Not to mention the financial implications of raising children nowadays. Which is a shame, as I'd love to be a father one day.

Anyway, this is all a bit OTT, but discuss anyway.
