This may seem like the most contradictory and irrational and controversial thing you've ever read from me. But it's the way I am.
I think my parents committed an immoral act by giving birth to me but I'm glad they did and I think they had a right to do so. Also I think morality is overated. So what if they commited an extremely mildly immoral act in my opinion? (Merely because I think that there's a great asymmetry between pleasure and pain). Their wanting to have a child was more important. Yes I have strange views lol. Don't look at me. Lol. I'm drunk but the alcohol isn't an excuse for how I am lol.
It takes a human being to get passed the idea that immoral things™ happen..and discuss why they happened and what to do now. So, your mommy and daddy cheated goodness and here you are...on the whole, probably a good outcome.
Think of all the dummys breeding...........remember, it's not about the "best"...only whats left.
