They are just going to grow up and die anyways and then I'll have to bury them.......

Or they will have to see me and their mother die and be in pain

And then they might get bullied in school or be very sick or depressed

why bring another person in this depressing, unfulfilling, unfair, shytty world?
Logically it makes no sense to have children in today's society...
Our ancestors needed many children because...
1) Mortality was high
2) They needed help to farm, hunt, essentially survive...
3) They needed somebody to take care of them in their old age...
However, we are living in the "service" age...If you have money, you can pretty much buy any service...
A child is not necessarily going to better your chance of survival, in fact, a lot of the research today shows that children are more and more dependent on their parents well past their mid-20s...
Basically, for educated people, children of today are either an accessory to make the parents feel good about themselves (if they are lucky enough to have good children) or children are just a result of carrying on with tradition...
For not so educated people, children are just mistakes, as they have always been for these kinds of people since the beginning of time...
If you are poor, children could be a hope for a better future...
If you are rich, you should be living your life to the max, and I don't see how you can do that if you have to dedicate your life to somebody else's happiness...
There really is no "intelligent design" for human's to keep reproducing, but nature is genius that it made sex feel so good, and love/lust put us in states that we are so "high" from pleasure that we forget or outright ignore to use contraception during copulation, to ensure that we keep making mistakes, and thus, keep reproducing...
Also, nature gave us tradition/customs to ensure that we are indoctrinated with ideologies that encourage to keep reproducing...
People who do not have the ideologies of reproducing, don't reproduce, and thus, their genes don't get passed on...In this way, nature ensures that people with a predisposition to "pro-reproduction" indoctrination outnumber those without it, and thus, more humans willing to reproduce are born than those who are not...
Nature is just pure genius...We think we have "free will" but we are just following a script that is encrypted in our DNA and environment...
