Well, if you want humanity to end, sure, you should inform people better. But that’s a one sided information flow. You can quantify how much money a kid costs.

  > You can’t quantify what it brings to you You can’t know until you’ve already walked through the one-way door. What about all of that aggregate regret and suffering for those who didn’t want, or don’t want after kids are here? Humanity isn’t going to end because we empower people who don’t want kids to not have them, although the population will compress over the next 200 years (from 10B downward). There will always be parents who really want to be parents, as well as parents who thought they wanted to be but regret it. For those who want to eat the glass, we salute you. Options for everyone else.
