[The feed clicks on to the interior of one of the Japanese houses, which is currently in a bit of a state.

In the midst of them, Jotaro stands, completely still and impassive. Hands in pockets

I'll keep you unconscious the next time it happens if you'd do the same for me. Assuming only one of us is affected, naturally.

[Dryly. That week, what the hell, man.]

What does emotion have to do with it?

[istoppedtime]

It's generally what motivates people to have kids. Emotion. Instincts. Told you you won't understand it.

And what good is that motivation? There's no planning in that, so the result is never as useful.

[istoppedtime]

Kids aren't supposed to be... hm. Not completely true. They're just supposed to fill an emotional need, not a practical one.

[law_of_reason]

Supposed to? And what if one has no emotional needs? Then the child might as well be for something more useful.

You asked why most people do it. You got your reasons, but you can't confuse them with theirs.
