    This somehow feels both sad and pro-natalist. Like it’s a lonely guy who wishes he had a family because having a family is nice?

      For me it’s something like playing sims instead playing with real people lives. This immersive simulation should be enough. Just like killing people in games is sufficient experience and we don’t call it promurder.

        Fair enough. Just seems to me like it’s implying he wants a child but can’t. Feels a bit too Surrogates (2009) for me

        For the record, I don’t have or want kids
