Comment on "Pro-life" and "pro-choice" aren't actually opposite positions

My point is the anti natalists have the perspective that the risk of suffering is not worth imposing on a new human.

You saying that assessment is overblown does not change their perspective

The real part I didn’t understand is the “prior consent” part. Like I said, before you have the child, there’s nothing to ask for consent. It doesn’t make any sense.

But as to the rest, I’m saying that the assessment is so overblown that it ceases to be rational. A fraction of a fraction of a percent of people will never get fulfillment from life, so no one should ever have children?

There’s always some risk associated with everything. To never do anything because there’s a minuscule chance it could be disastrous is ridiculous.
