Why are normies always so desperate to have children?
>no money
>no time for yourself
>having to deal with things like crying and tantrums
>child will probably be ungrateful and hate you
>you pretty much lose all of your freedom for the next 18 years
How is any of that appealing?
you see the appeal of it when you grow out of being a child

Having children is a meme like getting married.
Normies think it's part of the life experience.

They realize how much they don't matter and are desperate to have externally validated purpose, so they create human beings that need them to survive.
I'm currently reading "Motivation and Personality". I'm not sure if I understood it correctly, but basically getting children should be the next logical step for normies who already have their whole life in order.
Think about it. The reason us robots don't want kids is because we never had things like money, friends, love, or success. Having a child is like skipping all of those things, but we don't want to skip that. But normies experienced all that. And eventually, those things become boring and stale too.
Basic instinct/purpose.
Drives you to improve yourself and be as good as you can as well, because you will want your childreen to succeed, and the only way you can do aid that is to succeed as well. If you fail, you die, and so do your progeny.
If they do well, they may be of some service to the collective of humans. By proxy you have been useful as well. Everyone contributes, everyone tries.
There's not finish line to this though that I can actually grasp. So I don't know what it really is we are trying to succeed at, or what we are trying to contribute "help" to.
Oh well.
