The world is going to hell in a handbasket on *every front* and you want us out here having kids?????

If I hadn& #39;t had my babies pre-2016, I& #39;d be childless for life now. No way I& #39;d bring a human into this mess https://twitter.com/BBCScienceNews/status/1283208011276791808">https://twitter.com/BBCScienc...

If you& #39;re choosing to have kids now, that& #39;s amazing and I& #39;m sending you so much love and all my wishes for success as a parent

I just know I personally wouldn& #39;t have the heart for it at this point, and I think a lot of people feel the same way

The fact that I already *have* kids who are going to need to live in this world for potentially 60 years after I& #39;m gone is a MILLSTONE around my neck

Not because they& #39;re anything short of amazing--I think they hung the moon in the sky

But because *I* brought them into this world, so I& #39;m responsible for them

And things in this world are not going well

I make our corner of it as safe and magical and comfortable as I can, but I won& #39;t be standing in the breach forever
