By your categorization, I probably do. However, I think making the conscious decision not to have children because of one spouse's complete lack of interest and ability, and the other spouse's background in an insane, broken family, is actually a responsible decision.

If all of us refrained from having children based on our own imperfections, no one would have them. If we have such imperfections, it is our duty to work on improving them, not using them as an excuse for why we can't do things.
