I know what you mean sometimes I feel like just adopting when I think about things as literally as you are now. But for me personally on a real-life level it's not a decision based on "oh no! I'm adding another baby to this overpopulated world!" Because when/if I do have a baby it won't be on the streets. It's more about when will be the right time to have a baby that I can afford and that I can take care of emotionally as well. That is what is stopping me from having a baby right now not 'overpopulation'. And for the world as a whole it's probably better for me to be considerate before bringing another life on this earth. So I think that trying to be a responsible parent is more important then counting all the heads currently existing on earth. The reason why we're counting heads is because so many of those people are not taken care of and don't have a good standard of living probably because their parents didn't either and their parent's parents didn't either....and the vicious circle continues and no one is helping those families in need so that they may be able to raise future generations that will be better aware. I mean there are tons of parents who have one child and have tons of money but are raising 'poor kids' that are probably going to have problems when they are older. And then there are parents who have 5 kids but are the best parents on earth and do their parental duties and their kids are going to be just fine. I mean counting heads is not gonna solve the world's overpopulation problems - it's how you raise them to be responsible human beings that will.
