Is Human Reproduction Un-Ethical?

[robvalue]

My biggest problem with reproducing is the lack of consent. The kid gets no say whatsoever, and no easy way to get out of it once it's here. I know my line of thought is unusual, but I feel violated to have been thrust into this world. I now either have to suffer it, or go through with killing myself at some point (don't worry that's not a realistic option at the moment, I wouldn't do that to my wife).

Of course you can blame my outlook on me being depressed, and I'm looking at it negatively. I just don't have this idea, never have, that life is somehow amazing and a "gift". I've always looked at it as more of a curse. I wasn't always depressed, and I've always thought this way.

I'm not in any way trying to criticize people for having children or to try and guilt people into not doing it. I understand it's totally natural and it's what people do, and I'm sure mostly with the best of intentions. I'm only sharing my thoughts on the matter
