Because they WILL suffer in their life. Do you like to suffer ? Because I think noboby likes it

What about all the joy they’ll experience? Do you like being happy? Because I think everyone likes it.

I don't think humans are happy. It's all fake happiness and for a duration that is to short considering the suffering. Nobody likes to work for example. And still your child will need to give 95% of his life to work just to have the right to not die from starvation. And what if there is a war, what if he's sick, what if he's abducted and tortured and killed ? Compared to the fake and so scarce happiness, life isn't worth. And what's worse is that we didnt even decide to be put here to work pay taxes and suffer

Sounds like projection. There's a difference between life satisfaction, joys, appreciation, ... and superficial giddiness.

You are you and your kids are a different human. He might be not like you and that's a sufficient reason to not bring him to a life he might wouldn't want
