This Gen Xer does not intend to have any kids. Society is sick, getting sicker and one in which I don't intend to raise children in.
I had the same thought after 9/11 when my wife and I were discussing having a second child. We asked ourselves why we would want to bring children into a world where people do these sorts of things. After some reflection, I decided that people like us are exactly the ones who should be having kids otherwise it will only get worse.
Do you live in an urban coastal area? If so, that might be why your view is so dark. There are areas where people are more positive, more family oriented and more real.
