The way I look at it is that I need my kids to be super smart, hard working, and principled to help extricate humanity from the hole it's currently digging itself into. I can think of many ways the future could suck more than the present, but in none of these scenarios will it be better off without my children, assuming I raise them well.
- crpatino 6y agoI personally believe that digging itself into a hole (and eventually climbing back up) is the status quo for Humanity. It has been done multiple times before, and doubtlessly it will continue to be the case once our current trials are nothing but fading footnotes in some ancient history book. With that in mind, I don't think it is healthy for a child to grow up believing Humanity is fixable or, even worse, that it is their destiny and their duty to fix it.
