Just because "having a child is the most wonderful thing that can happen to a human being" doesn't mean that people should go and have more children than they can afford.

And by the way, not everyone thinks that having a child is a wonderful thing, and not everyone wants to have a kid. Personally, I would never had a kid. Never wanted one and never will.

The question that the author is asking is a valid one. The world is way overpopulated. Maybe instead of having kids, people should be adopting the millions of children who are already born and have no parents.

Many people have children because they are selfish, not because they want to bring a life into the world.

I cannot believe the ignorance of some of the people commenting here.
