I have choosen not to have childeren. But sometimes I feel like I will miss out by not having a child i.e help and companionship when I am old. But  Over POPULATION is a major issue and I will not contribute to this problem by having childeren. It angers me that so many selfish people continue to have more than their fair share: 2 children (1 to replace each parent). I find it deeply disturbing that certain religous sects encourage birthing as many children as a woman can produce. This overpopulation will lead to increased crime, pollution, and war. 

If everyone else was responsible: only have planned children and not more than 2 per couple, than I would indeed have a child. But because I see the impending doom lack of clean water, useable farm land, etc. etc. I will not. These people who choose to have several children should thank those of us who are making an effort to make their childs world a better place.
