I understand that when enough people do not have children the human race will disappear. Civilization might disappear before then. I'm not talking about that. I'm also not talking about people having children or not. I'm arguing for people to assume responsibility for their choices(whatever the choice may be) and to not go "Oh, I really didn't have a choice in the matter".

I especially dislike it when people present their choice as a sacrifice for humanity. Another poster put it better:

> People can have children without congratulating themselves for a sacrifice well delivered ... Kinship for species only extends so far and not much at all when there is parental entitlement.
