Lucky you! I hope your kids are also as lucky as they age.

The point seems to be that it’s extremely risky. Your decision to have kids outweighs, in the long run, most any other moral decision you make.

I would say not having kids and then in essence relying on other people's kids for long term care and production of goods and services in retirement is much worse morally. And then there's the whole keeping the species going. If you think humans shouldn't exist then there is no productive discussion I can have with you.
Is there any state the world could be in that letting the species cease to exist would be preferable? At all?
