I'm not crazy about having kids. I don't find child labor and cleaning up kiddie puke at 4 a.m. attractive at all. But...more than likely it will work to my advantage in the long run. When you get older the people who you used to take care of you often die or get sick, like your parents. I'm female, and wives often out live husbands. I don't want to become that lonely old woman with 81 cats (any watched Oprah yesterday?). Too make it short, your children (and sometimes grandchildren) will likely be there for you more than anyone else. My mom takes care of her mother, and my dad takes care of his mother. No one else is really there for either of my grandmothers, except for my parents. I also don't want to put a lot of burden all on one kid (like my grandma did to my mom), so I think I will want more than one child. This sounds selfish, but this is the reality for a lot of old folks.
