As a father of a four year boy, this video made me cry a lot and reflect our role as parents and that every moment with our kids is an infinite blessing. Thank you for sharing a piece of your life. God bless you and yours. 🙏

I feel compassion for this guy and anybody else who’s lost a child but this is exactly why i think we shouldn’t be having kids. Sure parents get joy out of their kids but the child’s perspective matters too, and the fact is that the child never consented to being brought into the world to suffer and die in the first place. So it often amounts to joy at the expense of them. The example in this video is just one of innumerable ways it can go horribly wrong for your child when you decide to create life and it just isn’t worth the risk

Why is consent the only way to make something morally justifiable?
Sure there is suffering, but there is also joy. Suffering does not necessarily make a life not worth living.

@godofedrofalso4586 I think if an act could potentially lead to extreme suffering for another person then the inability to get consent from that person is a serious problem. I’d say whether a life is worth living or not is up to each individual to decide and i agree that suffering dosen’t necessarily mean a life isn’t worth living. But when people have kids they are projecting their own sense of life being worth living onto their child, who might die young like this guys son or who as adults might end up coming to the opposite conclusion to their parents after a life of hardship and suffering.
