You comment puzzles me. Hopefully you will reply below.

Are you discounting the value of reversible birth control based upon your feelings at a certain point in time? Also remember that evolution has probably programmed children be "amazing" until they can fend for themselves.

Presumably you're comfortably middle-class in a first-world country with a good social contract (yes, kid-friendly services like subsidized/free public schools and universities are a safety net). You need to step back and think about societies which don't have such luxuries.

And sorry to get all personal on you, but do you use ANY scientific form of birth control? Are you ok with you/your SO getting pregnant every year (unsure about your gender, hence hedging)? That's usually what happens w/o birth control. If you do use scientific birth control (so-called "rhythm" method etc don't count) then your comment is pretty hypocritical.



I started two write a response, twice, but your arbitrary assumptions don't deserve answers. Your general tone does not indicate a desire for dialogue.


Your original post is completely off-topic, or do you actually want everyone to have as many kids as humanly possible? That would equal 1 kid a year, do you want everyone to have 1 kid a year, even teenagers, grandmas..everyone? No? Then stay on topic, which is prevention.
