Speaking only for members of my own family, I'd say that, yes, some people DO have children for very selfish reasons, actually. and later, when there are problems, or not enough finances, they shrug their shoulders and solve the problem by having another baby to distract themselves from the mess their older children have become.
But back to the OP, I think population is a problem but so many have lost the idea of stewardship of the earth. We are part of the earth (more new age'y music in the background, perhaps some indigenous peoples music) and just one of G*d, Gaia's, the Great Pumpkin ... whoever you follows creatures.
We borrow the earth from our children and our children's children. So maybe you think "it's just bats" but the bats control ____ and are in turn eaten by ____ and when the bats go the _____ are out of control and the _____ starve and ya know it won't take long to reach us.
We're animals too![]()
