And I can assure you, adopted kind will be always greatful to you for saving him and giving him love and care. When someone has the opportunity, including financial opportunity to help that children, why not make a use of that. Living only for yourself, living only for fun and entertainment, is selfish and useless..

Well obviously that would be great and while I might agree with you, there are lots of folks who wouldn't. Doesn't make us right now does it? And it doesn't make those who make that choice selfish or useless. Sorry I truly can't agree with you there.

Imagine that. I am in hospital. I am sick. And there are nobody to come to visit me, say "Hello, Dad! How are you? We have brought some fresh fruits for you".

Again I agree that my daughter is the best thing that has happened to me. Doesn't guarantee that when you are in the hospital that anyone is going to visit you does it? We all know people who were, shall we say overjealous in some aspect of raising their children and now that the children are older, the children have nothing to do with the parent. There are no guarantees in life. Having children doesn't mean they will be there for you when you are older. I am hopeful that my daughter will be, but who knows what the future holds.
My issue with your post was your condemnation of those who choose to not have children. Having children is a very big responsibility and one that should be entered into only with due consideration for all that is involved, and not to create 'purpose' for ones life. Just my opinion--yours obviously varies from mine and I wish you good luck in your life and endeavors
