Should one have kids? This was never really a choice but something simply primal. Today, however, it is absolutely a choice … and one that is incredibly personal. The wise human seeks to first understand the reality of their situation … and what the world has become, what still remains … before making (or not making) the most consequential decision of their life.

Nikhil's note

This is concise, short, and direct. I’m not moved by mainstream discussions on this topic for I find them too shallow. I don’t have kids currently, though I may choose to have them later. What I wrote in this island comes straight from the heart and it cuts to the heart of the matter.
