Crompdad asked: What right/reason/motivation do I have to reproduce?
I have no idea.

The reason that I had children was sex.
The motivation was sex, and love.
The right was natural, inherent as a sexual being.

Yes, I believe there is more to being a fab parent than just the idyllic-for-some pic you paint. If you were to lose your health and support and income/savings, you would need to continue to provide for your children and their well-being in all aspects. This takes, at the very least, interest and interaction and some smarts.

However, the Standard of Care in many states is much less than this, and humans can survive just fine with those too.
