Maybe think like a couple and you won't need to think about being selfish. Have a kid when you're 28 or 30. Don't bring a child into the world when you can't even take care of yourself and others around you, because that's pretty selfish

I mean, to refer to it that way? I highly doubt it could be something selfish judging that at the time in which you are deciding whether or not to have a child it doesn't even exist, and if it were to? It would not be your fault if it were to resent you for having it exist in the first place, because you wouldn't have even been able to regard its conscience at the time. If anything, perhaps it not wanting to exist could have derived from raising it poorly or mistreatment, lol. Anyway, I think it would be selfish in itself if it were to claim that you're selfish for wanting him/her to exist.

Nobody asks to be born, it's the human cycle of life. Being provided for and nurtured is not selfish. I think what's selfish is when people can't appreciate anything. I'm thinking that statement is sort of ironic. What's selfish is running away from responsibility. Not the act of having kids.

Having a child is only for allowing your Genes to go on. Running away from responsibility is selfish but to say Giving life is not selfish is wrong as it is just as Selfish as per say someone wanting Immortality. In the end Selfish is not always bad
