    What if you bring a child into the world that’s born with a major, incurable defect?

    Life is not always full of joy, in fact, for many it’s devoid of it. I think really good points are being made here against children.

    I don’t believe it’s necessarily immoral to have kids, but I DO think it’s a serious grey area. It’s emphatically not the positive action society makes it out to be.

      What’s your point? That disabled people’s lives aren’t worth anything? 🤨

      ummm, source? O.o

      Also: live can be better, you know. Just because life sucks for some today, doesn’t mean it can’t improve in the future. That’s simply a defeatist stance.

      I’ve yet to see one, tbh.

      I think, the question alone shows a misunderstanding of existence: not everything can be cathegorized into “good” and “bad”.
