In many ways it’s the best world to bring kids into, ever. As a middle class American I live better than an Egyptian pharaoh.
Except that a cloud of uncertainty hangs over it.
But a cloud of uncertainty is not worse than, say, constant starvation and plagues or eternal tribal wars. Would you bring a child into the world of the black plague? The Bronze Age collapse?
There has never been and will never be a utopia, especially one that can project into the future without fear. Having children means both blessing and cursing them with existence in a universe that apparently is not safety tested.
