or worse. Every criminal/murderer/dictator/terrorist etc. was somebody's child. Theoretically you could say that it had to do with "bad" parenting, and such would never happen with *your* kids. But parenting is difficult. What if your kids rebel? I'm not saying that they will end up murders as a result, but it's sheer arrogance to think that your progeny will make the world *better* instead of worse. Why? Cause it's yours? Sorry, this argument is fail on so many levels.
I think one should consider that perhaps it's simply time for one's genetic line to come to an end. Think about how cool that is, you get to be the last one! That's true darkworker material, to reap the benefits of every generation that came before you without worrying about giving to the next. It's sure better than being another boring link in the chain.
