Well, i dont welcome the end. I think mankind is amazing. So, we stumble...big deal. You can be a negative nancy if you want, id rather look at things in a positive light. just over a hundred years ago, we were not even flying...and today we have high res close up images of methane snow on Plutos moons from a probe we sent on a 10 year journey.
Nancy speaking...Yes while millions have no clean drinking water and babies lose arms and legs in war and from disease... cool methane snow

I feel for both you and the OP man, I see both sides.
Your son has a heck of a bad world coming along with his future.
Then of course we all die maybe it would be less painful if we all went at once.

I think at any point in history one could have said to another, "It's a bad world out there. You sure you want to bring a child into it?"
Like a lot of people, if I sit and think only about the horrors, the world seems, well, horrible. However, an individual life can be quite rewarding (as mine is so I'm glad that my parents decided to have me).
I think the difference between my view and that of the OP is, if an individual wants to "opt out" of this world, while I would likely try to discourage them, it is entirely up to that individual. It appears that the OP wants to make that choice for everyone. That is the difference.

life is great until you get a disease, or killed by an ignorant nutbag.
