For the people who don't give 2 shits.

I realize that sounds like a meme, but it's kinda true, isn't it?

Might be better to have kids so you can rease them as super-heroes that fight the planet-killers?

This is a very un-ycombinator feeling thread.

Please don't. While I understand that you might think that it is unfair to those people who decide not to have kids, they made the decision.

What you're suggesting is arguably worse. I certainly wouldn't want to be raised with onus of having to clean up the planet after the wild party of my parents.

I'm not suggesting it's the right thing to do. I don't decide on what's wrong or right. I'll let people that do on their own.
