Explanation:
Absolutely not.
My children have taught me more about human psychology and the mystery of human behavior and cognition than I have managed to master over the 30+ years I’ve lived before having them.
There’s just no comparing between a life without and with children.
Having a responsibility over another human being, that’s completely helpless without you and that needs guidance and support, that needs to build a basis to be able to tackle life’s problems, is an immense game changer. A parent is forced to learn about human psychology, how our mind works, how characters are formed, how we learn, how we learn to be independent responsible individuals and to contribute to society. By learning this in real life, not from books, and by learning the hard way, through error and success, this knowledge and experience is so much more real and lasting compared to getting ‘academic’ knowledge or wisdom from books.
Also by making sure your kids grow up to be independent responsible and social human beings, as a parent you are contributing so immensely to society, I don’t think this can compare with most intellectual, scientific or physical professional or social contributions to society.
Why would I want to live in mystery, anyway?
And as for wonder and amazement, nothing compares to the amazement of a small human being developing and finding his or her way in life? My kids amaze me every single day…
So its a definite ‘no’ as far as I am concerned.
PS As for marriage, same thing, only less unconditional, less profound and sometimes, often, most of the time (chose as you wish based on your own experiences in marriage), much more time and energy consuming, frustrating and conflicting. But it’s from conflicts we learn and progress.
