Anti-natalism has been suggested as a topic every month for the last 3 so I felt there must be issues that need discussion. A-V suggests that it is morally wrong to bring children into (today's?) world. Is it? Or better, under what principles might it be wrong? Would any with some Buddhist education help us understand what was taught about having children.

This may be a generational divider: so far only the younger generation seem to have wanted us to consider anti-natalism.

There may of course be many practical considerations and facts supporting the need to reduce human population. We may need to consider these (not obviously philosophical) issues.

The Wiki article on ANTI-NATALISM is quite detailed and full of names and ideas (eg negative utilitarianism) I have never heard of. Seems like a fascinating topic. Do come. An open-ended discussion as before, unless some would like to present views at greater length? Let me know if you do . ([masked])
