The article below appeared on intellectualtakeout.com last week.
​
A woman I knew in college who later became an important figure in Planned Parenthood often stated her aversion to bearing children. “Who would bring a child into today’s world?” she’d say. “Look at the mess we’re in.”

That was 47 years ago.

Today when I tell some people I am a father and grandfather, some people echo the same sentiments. “It’s an awful time to raise children,” these folks say, filled with sympathy. “I sure wouldn’t want to do that responsibility.”

​No matter how many times I’ve heard it, this response leaves me stunned for several reasons.
