Now it's a popular view held in philosophy that life is suffering. As Nietzsche once said, "That which does not kill us makes us stronger".
Suffering is considered as a factor which helps us grow, or maybe even give our life meaning.

Buddhists believe that the human life is one of suffering, and that meditation, spiritual and physical labor, and good behavior are the ways to achieve enlightenment, or nirvana

Now having said that, it's generally considered morally wrong to wish suffering upon someone. But when we give birth, it's bringing new life into suffering.
So, how do we justify that? A lot of people have children because it gives them a sense of purpose, and keeps them satisfied in long term.
But what about the children who didn't ask to be born?

I personally decided on not to bring kids into this world. I have serious issues, I know parenting would make me hate myself even more.
There's really no justification honestly, my mum had me so she wouldn't feel lonely in old age. Her words. So yeah, very selfish. She thinks I'm her little minion

Well apparently part of the justification should be not letting your kids be philosophers.
