You can make the same argument in the event of bring any child into this world. Does the world need more children? Is the human race on the verge of collapse? No, infitate growth isn't sustainable.

But the argument of "money better spent on other stuff" is hard to actually enforce. I've seen arguments against advancing in space travel because of coastline marshlands being eroded, and how important that is.

I think the take away is, what's important to one person, is hardly ever important to another person. In this instance, the lady really wanted to have a child of her own to experience that. But bring any child into this world on purpose is always an act of selfishness.

Typing that out, whelp, I'm jaded too I guess.
