I'm not sure that civilization's problems (especially given our massive overpopulation problems) can be ascribed to a general lack of "empathy" on the part of people who don't have children.
Actually, I am sure that they can't. I'm sure we've all observed plenty of people with kids who seem to lack all empathy.

More boring, perhaps, but when you're raising children, boring and predictable are advantages. We can all agree, though, that dysfunctional families do not contribute to said stability.
