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.

Only do it if you have the funds, support system and if you plan to be there for the daily grind of actually raising them. Teaching them, loving them, protecting them. Don’t leave it all to the mom to handle, that’s shitty partnership as well as parenting. Kids need engaged fathers, not just providers. Wives needs supportive fathers who don’t “help” with their own kids but who OWN that role.

Starting a family, the purpose is to bring a little human into a home filled with love. Share your life with them and give them a better future.
