You live on through your children, as such, having children is a step to becoming immortal.
Otherways include doing something so horrible, no one will ever forget you.

Fritzel took the logical conclusion: have children with your children! Further generations, and no one is likely to forget that any time soon.

Re: Why Would Anyone Have Kids?
If my children just played video games, I would be SOOOOOOOOOOO happy. The perfect scenario for me would be children who are intelligent, work hard at their studies and don't subscribe to raves, parties, drinking, and ughh... grinding.Yeah, if all they did was play computer games all day, I wouldn't be able to stand it, either.
Re: Why Would Anyone Have Kids?
My wife is now 6 and a half month pregnant.
A while ago, I held my hand on her belly and suddenly, I felt something kicking. It was amazing. Nowadays, the baby responds to my voice very well. When I talk to my wife's belly (yes, talking to a belly looks ridiculous; it looks even more ridiculous when you make silly sounds) while holding my hand on it, I get rewarded with lots of kicks (or punches). It's a fantastic experience and I could spend hours doing just that. Can't wait to hold the little one.
Three weeks ago, we had a 3D echo and we could see the face of our child. Amazing what modern technique can do nowadays

Until it's your own. Other babies still look odd, but your own is a small angel (possibly not when going puce from yelling...)
Not convinced about 3d USS scans. Some reports say that the energy they require could be dangerous. Since they served no prognostic use, We went with the 2D ones.

3D echo's are very common here.

Re: Why Would Anyone Have Kids?
I think it's my paranoia more than anything else.
I viewed the risk:benefit as tiny:none and hence didn't do it.
If there was any proven harm beyond theoretical risk it'd have been uniformly scrapped.
