I don't regret having kids, and if anything, they bring joy into my life and drown out the sorrows that exist in the real world today. I do think sometimes about whether my kids will have to deal with a worse world than we have today, but I realize that my elders felt the same way about me and I am coping and living my life today, as an adult. I have to feel that my kids will have the same resilience and adapt to their world and be able to live their lives. Life is too short to contemplate what will be; we can only live life day by day and make the best of it.
Obviously, with all the instability, the world needs smart people. MAKE MORE!
If you become so concerned about terrorism not to have children, then the terrorist will eventually out number the rest of us. Not to mention, kids are great fun and the most joy you will ever have.
Just me,
Vincenzo

There is no reason not to have them ,if you ask me. I plan my first one soon and other then health issues , there is nothing that concern me.
