I just felt like you stole my words. I have exactly the same opinions that you have given. The only thing that I would attribute to being exclusive to parents is the immense love that is born when you have a child, it is an indescribable love that you will never experience if you do not have children. You can love your partner, your parents, your siblings, friends, your pet, but that love will never compare to the one you feel with your children. It hurts to say it but being objective it is only a trap of survival, of biology. Just as sex is delicious, divine and great for trapping living beings and thus procreating and ensuring the survival of the species, the love for children is the same. That desire to leave a legacy is rooted in the same thing.

I could say the same thing, you also expressed pretty well what I was trying to convey.
I agree with that feeling of immense love towards the kid. It's indeed indescribable.
For the vast majority of parents, it comes naturally. Sadly, I've met a few people for whom this feeling of unconditional love wasn't natural. Luckily, some of them come around and feel that way eventually.
But not all. So, it's good when people know themselves well enough to know that bringing a kid into this world is not something for them—too many mentally damaged people in Korea. Damaged to the point where this strong biological survival feature got suppressed/destroyed due to the environment they grew up in.

The only thing I know about Korea is what I've seen in documentaries or read, and I've seen a lot about the great mental pressure both in studies and at work, well, you said it yourself, the pressure is so strong that socially it has broken all biological instincts for reproduction. I also know people who said they wanted to have children but in the end they didn't even take care of them; here in Latin America, paternal abandonment is very, very common, sadly.
