Why people have kids

So that when they're of age, you can teach them to play D&D, like Wil Wheaton.

See, that's the kind of reason we need. Not so much the "children make your life complete" refrain.

The other reason would be to have a good reason to interrupt the husband while he's installing his latest computer game.

Oh, one more reason: to bring up your very own Perfect Goth Girl. If I couldn't have a Rory Gilmore, I'd take a Goth Girl. (Actually, the two don't necessarily contradict.)

Okay, time for Ben & Jerry's Chocolate Fudge Brownie.
