1. Everyone gets old, if they don't die young.
2. Having children is a gift, and in addition to being a very, very important responsibility, it enriches life.
3. Being ‘successful’ in the ways society often defines (famous, high-profile job, wealthy) doesn't even begin to bring as much meaning to life as being surrounded by people who you love, and who love you.

So, not having kids because it might change your physical appearance would be a tragic mistake.

I notice my definition of “young” keeps getting pushed back as I get older.

Now it is like until 82 or something.
