If you don’t want kids, maybe it’s because you’re epigenetics went wrong with you personally or a flaw in your development. You could also be a specialized instrument of greater value doing something that isn’t compatible with properly raising kids.

I'm listening....
Care to elaborate?
A vocation to holy life such as priesthood and nunnery. Requires discernment before going the celibate path as they prioritize the needs of the community.
Otherwise I fully agree. Have kids. Lots of ‘em.
I was intentionally vague because it could mean so many things. Priest/monk definitely fits and I could see an argument to be made that any positive purpose driven life that keeps one from devoting enough of their to their kids. So if you are a doctor, soldier, scientist, inventor, exc… And you are too focused on your trade/mission to be good to your kids, don’t have them.
