I don't think so. Why would it be?

Yeah, I don't see how it can be considered selfish to not have kids in this day and age when we aren't in danger of dying out. If anything, it could be argued to be selfish to have kids considering you are bringing more people into an overpopulated planet.

Agreed.

It's not like kids are going to a problem for a parent, even though they always are. :rofl:

I like it when I can easily agree with people. I was going to write this myself, but feared a somewhat lengthy debate in which I was the sole owner of the position.

There are plenty of children that need adopting if people want one, and I know they want their own, but that's another part of why it's selfish.

Pouf: Why don't you slow down on the topics? You're going to burn out eventually, and better to have a steadier flow of good ones than lots of one-pagers.

I don't think selfish can be attributed to having kids or not having kids. It's just one of those things that normally bring joy to people's life, I wouldn't think it's selfish or selfless.

It could be argued that it's selfish by "bad people" to have kids since they are just gonna treat them poorly anyway and/or turn them into awful people.

I agree. We have a major overpopulation crisis with no resolution as resources are in higher demand on this planet.

We need to start The Hunger Games in every country across the world or something. :p

As for the topic, you could argue that both having children and not having children are selfish choices. It doesn't make them bad.

There's a reason China had a 1-kid policy for years and years, they didn't want to overpopulate the Earth. I think when the time comes, the entire planet needs to think about this, and THEN if people have more kids than they are allowed it is considered selfish.

imo.

It's not selfish to not have kids, but it's also not always selfish to have kids considering most kids nowadays are accidents.

Not at all would it be selfish. Especially if you're not wanting to bring kids into the world if you're not ready. Even then it's 100% your choice, I don't see how it would ever be a selfish thing to not have kids.

I'm with Sam on this one. Even if it did qualify as selfish, that doesn't inherently make it a bad choice.

It's true that accidents aren't selfish though, I shouldn't have been so black and white in that regard.

Even if it is a bit selfish, it's not necessarily a bad choice given the circumstances. I mean, looking after a kid is a big responsibility, not to mention the fears of something happening to them.
