This seems to be applying reason wrongly. There is no rational need for me to marry & have children. I did that to fulfil emotional needs.https://twitter.com/killbyte/status/917392545965015041 …

And this is often anti-rational. If I reasoned about whether to have children, I would probably decide not to. Costly in both time & money.

But it's not why I decided to have children. I didn't reason to that decision. I wanted a baby. Emotionally.
