I can't think of a single unselfish reason to have children. It's certainly the ultimate unenvironmental thing to do. So rationally I suppose I shouldn't have any. I haven't had any 'by accident' yet so I don't see that happening. It is yet another thing to look at and decide you want to do the opposite to most people round you, which is tiring. My recently departed great uncle was intelligent, left wing, lived on his own, had no children, didn't mind an untidy house.. my aunt's family though he was totally weird. Looks like I could proudly carry on the baton; I guess we share some genes. Mind you, who knows what could happen. That's the weird thing about having children. It's either yes or no and either would change how your life panned out. I suppose at least I've got a choice, unlike my foremothers, who ended up with half a dozen.

Anyway I can't really see the attraction of babies. Children are ok.
