Pets and Children, Why do we have them?

If you ask females of the appalling-many (lower classes),  why they want babies, they'll answer (all unconscious of the depravity of their response) that they "want somebody to love them."  That is, they want beings attached to them so utterly dependent on them that (wretched though they be, and despite the rigors and torments of their existence) they will be compelled to love their mothers in order to survive.  This, I believe, is the reason for the existence of fatherless Negro and illegitimate lower class (trailer trash) White children.  Heaven knows, it is not that they are loved.
