I think it makes much more sense for an intelligent* person to adopt a child. That way you're not contributing to population growth. Also, I would assume the outcome of being raised by the state would be worse than being raised by adoptive parents. And you'd be taking one child away from other potential adoptive parents who are stupid into your own, presumably better, home.
*Dunning-Kruger effect. If I remember correctly, there are studies showing that a majority of people in a given group think they're of above the average intelligence of said group. I guess what I'm getting at is recommending intelligent people do X perhaps isn't the best idea since many people, who aren't necessarily intelligent, think they're intelligent
