[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] [/quote] Actually having kids is kind of selfish and indulgent, yes. But once you have them, [b]the choice to actually dedicate yourself to raising them[/b], giving them a good start to life, and guiding them into adulthood as good people [b]is the opposite of selfish or indulgent. Not all parents do this, but those that do are engaged in truly meaningful work and it is an achievement.[/b] [b]The vast majority of people never do professional work that anyone really cares about beyond their immediate circle. Hard truth. This is why parenting presents a lot of people with the opportunity to finally do something really lasting and meaningful.[/b] [/quote] That's right. The achievement is not "having children" which is not an accomplishment in itself, but to dedicate years of your life to raising them to be good adults. That is much more needed in this world.
