Best choice I ever made. There is more to life than success, money, and personal ambition (make a difference). Being a father is the highest form of true self

  That’s interesting that you feel that way. I am not trying to diminish your belief. Clearly it is true for you. However for me, having children is the most profoundly selfish thing I can imagine. Creating another person to give myself fulfillment and purpose. Especially considering how difficult climate change and AI will make life for the next generation or two, I feel morally compelled not to have children. However, as I said, I recognize your experience is different. It’s interesting how different.

    Do you have children? What's funny is you even think of having kids through the focus of you, like you could find purpose. That's seriously self involved man. It's not about you. From a distance drowning looks a lot like swimming. Swimming is fun and enjoyable, where as drowning in a desire for personal fulfillment isn't. Get in the water (have kids), it may surprise you.
