It's natural to have kids, but what makes having kids moral? What if you are living beyond your means or living in poverty, and give birth to children only to have them suffer with you? What if you are a neglectful parent, or in the case of this topic, a parent who is going to die in the foreseeable future? Do either of those situations make you think "of course it's still moral to have kids"?

If you raise them to be wonderful human beings then you are contributing to society, and making the earth a better place by adding a wonderful talented person into the mix.
