Why are people so selfish that they have so many kids?
<|assistant|>
People are often driven by their own interests when they decide to have children. Having children can provide people with a sense of accomplishment and purpose, as well as a chance to pass down traditions, values, and identity. Having lots of children can also be viewed as an investment towards the future generations. While having lots of children can be selfish from a biological standpoint, it is often seen as altruistic when a person seeks to create a large family and leave a legacy.
