I agree completely shakran. In fact I would love if birth were actually regulated. So many absurd things are restricted in our society but irresponsible reproduction, something that is far from absurd, isn't. What the hell? As has been mentioned, raising kids the "right" way requires very hard work. Simply having kids does not elevate one's status over those who choose not to. Parents must be in it for the long haul or they don't deserve to be parents. I believe many of society's problems stem from poor upbringings but the prevailing attitude is to build more prisons and not address the problem at its root.
So "why have kids?" I really don't know . It is quite an undertaking and without the most sincere intentions AND actions there is the possibility of ruining a human life that is then unleashed on everyone.
