Why all these living things keep reproducing themselfs cant we just skipp having children?

Answer 1

Yes! I am so on board with this one! If you think about it in a larger sense -- the humanity will die out, but if you look at it from an individual's point of view it looks something like this. All things in the world abide by the laws nature had imposed on them, but not us, humans. We can choose our appearance, our diet, our lifestyle. Why should we be slaves to biology? I think of myself as an intellectual being first and foremost, NOT a baby-squeezing machine. Plus, having children raises a lot of philosophical dilemmas: do you raise them as simply an extension of yourself or do you treat them as separate human beings from the time they're babies. Or how much of their success will you attribute to your parenting and how much of their failure are you going to take responsibility for. The point is -- having children is too hard, that's why I'm not doing it.

Answer 2

In primary school we studied the diffrence between living things and non living things.

Among the signs of living things a few are growth movement and reproduction.If u skip this u are not a living thing anymore. Ur just flesh machine.

Dont be a machine. U dont know how much pleasure children give you. U will know this whn u have a child of ur own. this feeling cannot be replace by anything in the whole universe.

Answer 3

Life tends to continuate itself, it is an inherent charachteristic. If life didn't propagate and continuate itself then there would be no life! and you wouldn't be asking this question since nothing ever reproduced in the first place. In philosophical terms it is safe to say that it is an inherent property of life to continuate itself: To be alive baby!

Answer 4

It's a choice to have children and most people choose to to do it to pass on whatever they feel is importantt. As a woman, I know one view is that having the husbands children is a sign of deep love for him, wanting to carry on his genes. I have friends who are of various religious beliefs who interpret the bible as saying we are supposed to procreate to please God. Personally, I have never wanted kids and I waited until I was 38 to get married, *finally* finding a man who agrees to not have them. The irony is that we both are in career fields that deal with or cater to children.

Answer 5

What you're talking about is the end of all life. Though I agree that humanity deserves to be extinguished, not all life on this planet deserves to be obliterated. But if you can find a way to sterilize humanity, go for it.

Answer 6

This question is great.
spacially if human being could skip from reproducing themselves there would be no more war, no more sin, no more murderers, no more sexual abuser and no more tention in various field such as mentally, envoronmentally and about generation,so it would be so good if people could do this.

Answer 7

If everyone did that, the world would end rather quickly as those currently living died without children.

Answer 8

We have a drive called the preservation of the specie. It is the outgrowth of the drive called sel-preservation. Besides who would take care of you in old age?

Answer 9

Well it seems, you have a lack of appreciation for life. Do you hate yourself and your family and friends whom ever they maybe? We and everything you know what created. You should asked the Creator, whom ever this is to you and see how far you get with this. Let me know how that goes.
