This thing that I'm going to say next? It's not politically correct. Deal.
I think that conceiving a child and allowing it to come to term and be borne is a morally reprehensible act of the same caliber as rape, torture, or slavery. It is the creation of a free willed and intelligent being without that beings knowledge or consent. That being is then faced with all the pain and suffering that inevitably accompany life, and is often left with no recourse but acceptance or suicide. Suicide is, ironically, considered morally reprehensible and is very difficult to accomplish, often leaving behind dependents who rely emotionally or fiscally on the deceased party.
So, to sum up, don't have babies, because your babies will probably have shitty lives, and bringing a baby into a shitty world of unending pain, suffering, and isolation that inevitably ends with an unknowable death is evil.

i don't know why we bring people into this fucked-up world, or the supremely fucked-up entity we call family. of course parents get really defensive when you challenge their decision to make more humans - they have their crushing guilt about everything they've already done to traumatize and mutate their children.
yeah i really fucking hate living sometimes. injustice after injustice...
