I'm going to counter with 2 distilled, oversimplified thoughts:

Happiness is a choice; most people can find a way to be happy in their lives with what they have.

People shouldn't have children mainly to experience joy, be complete, or just because. That's fucked up. I know people will fluff out a number of reasons if challenged, but I think you nailed it, and I think more than a few people have kids just to have kids.
