Adoption. Community building. Helping the disenfranchised.

These are all methods of bettering the future without pumping another child into this world. And arguably, they're morally better than having a child.

You were the one who implied that, by saying that not having children leaves it up to those who will.

Have you or are you planning to adopt a child?
