To me it is very simple!
You are here for a brief period. But your race is here for longer period. (It is up to you what you define as your race - for me it is human). So you carry your gene as healthy as possible and pass it on to your child. This way when you wear-off you had set the life to move on... through your children. This is biology & evolution.
Culturally, I think both individually and as a society, we hit our limits. Limits in terms of success, happiness, knowledge what so ever. At times we pray for one more chance to start our life all over again! Know what? The answer to that prayer is Children. Be there for them. Help them to reach things that they go beyond our limits.
Having children is not for just being remembered. Through children we live beyond death. Your child is You. Your next revision probably with fixes, or enhanced, or advanced, or latest - what ever.
So not just seeding, there is so much protecting, nourishing, coaching and then SETTING FREE involved in it.
