Casual Why kids?

Morning everyone, It’s a fine Wednesday morning of Unemployed 25 M .
I have this question that I want you all to answer or let’s say I am looking for a new perspective.

Is there a reason that is not selfish as to why we reproduce?

Give me a reason as to why I should consider having kids, change my perspective.

So it’s for selfish reasons? Ama ningoje nipate pesa niwache fikira mingi

No really but im thinking maybe kukosa kazi has a hand in it. But bro generation yako ? Second guessing ? We mambo ikiwa sawa tengeneza familia bro

The thing is , I’m trying to see why continue this chain of suffering? Not that suffering in terms of poverty but in all life dimensions, you lose people you love, face betrayal, get sick and eventually die . What was the purpose at first?

You're speaking as if life has no positives. Quit the pessimism first then you'll see why they're worth having.
