The woman's body goes through massive hormonal change, nesting instincts kick in, and the moment of birth for all it's pain, is a major bonding moment as a cocktail flood of hormones rush in stimulating love and empathy as well as prepare the mothers body for breast feeding.
But I suppose they'll have a pill for all that.
Yeah, I have to agree with you here, Ark. Most people don't have children because they are consciously concerned about perpetuating the species (much in the same way that men don't consciously prefer curvaceous women because they bare the hallmarks of fertility). People have babies because it feels good emotionally. Because, the love they experience is so powerful and fulfilling. You take away the joy (and pain) of parenthood...well, what's the point of having kids at all after that?

Lot's of profitable reasons: Raising armies/cults, perpetuating a lineage or dynasty, steady supply of fetal stem cell material, slave trade, organ harvest, medical experimentation, increased supply of state live stock. Lot's and lot's of completely horrifying reasons to turn a human child into a commodity when there are no parents to be concerned.
