On the flip side, what could be more valuable than giving rise to a new consciousness?

  If you have children and you enjoy raising them, maybe that's the most valuable thing in the world. What I've seen so far, it changes your life completely. It turns your life around, the child is the main focus. It costs lots of money, time and effort which one can put in other places. And even if you try raising them well, you have no idea what this consciousness is goign to grow up into. You have no guarantee that you will have good relationship with them. It's a huge gamble, basically. Is it really worth it? I guess it depends on the person.

    Not even mentioning, we have no idea what this planet is going turn into within the next 50 years, from what is observed, it probably won't be nice. Does one really want them living in such a world?

  Being born is a consent-less affair. How do you know if your kid wants to live in the future we're leaving him/her?
