There is nobody who will support you. There is nobody who will bring you a glass of water. And there will be nobody who will come to say you last goodbye.

I have to admit this is one of my pet peeves in the discussion of having children. There is no guarantee your children will be there for you when you are older. The same argument goes for the only child debate when people say the child needs a friend. There is no guarantee your children will like eachother or get along.
These are not the reasons to have children. My personal belief is that too many people have children for the wrong reasons, i.e. they're supposed to, somebody to take care of them, etc.
