[quote=Anonymous]I am a little surprised at the strong reaction that OP is wrong to feel this way! I believe our kids should have choices about the biggest things in their lives so I would never tell them I think they should have children, but isn't it extremely common for people to want to see their family line continue? We're animals with an evolutionary drive to reproduce, AND we're sentient beings with an understanding of our own mortality, AND we're social creatures who share our stories and traditions across generations. It's 1000% understandable for people to have a vision of being part of a continuous chain of generations that continues beyond them, and to be devastated by seeing the end point very close. [/quote]
