Anytime a friend, co-worker or random internet person announces they just had a child, I wonder WTF are they thinking? It seems like such a selfish act bringing a child into this world.

Not sure why the downvotes. I told my adult children what the world would be like for their children and both have decided not to have any. Grandchildren would be cool and all, but we’ve gotta unbury our heads from the sand sometime.

“Huh, looks like the icecaps will probably melt within a decade, there’s only 60 years of topsoil left, the rivers are drying up, the ocean’s dying, and the ‘worst case scenario,’ which we’re tracking on has up to an 8C rise by the end of the century. Oh, I know, I’ll create another life that will have to suffer through the worst of it while simultaneously contributing to the underlying cause!”
