To have children is firstly due to the enormous blast of hormones after puberty; secondly, for the ones that don't need their help when aged, it's a sort of getting some toys.

My toys were really wonderful, taught my wifes and me a lot, made our days of their childhood joyfull, aided to see the time passing quickly, the work of caring and teaching them was physically hard, but without worries or big problems.

Then... came the aborrecense, oh how much worries, disobeyance, efforts to give them councils, aid to make them find their paths. They decided which paths to take, which profession to follow, and they changed professions, places, having children (only the youngest from my first marriage decided not to have children).

They encountered several mishaps, some that they managed to overcome on their own, others that I, then rich, helped them with.

Today, three of them are in a difficult situation and I have no way of helping them: a lot of anguish and suffering for me and their mothers.

They all adore me and thank me for having helped them to exist, they say they are very happy; their ignorance is beneficial to them, a sale to the ultimate reality.

If it were today, I wouldn't have given birth to them.

I agree with Hotse Langerar and Ben Cain: This universe and life are a horror.
