A child isn't anyone's possession. He or she is a being in his own right and a responsibility under taken by those who bring them into the world.

Disagree 100%! Loving someone has nothing with giving them children. Kids are a huge responsibility not something you give someone you love like a heart-shaped box of chocolates or a diamond ring.

The responsibilites of parenthood should not be undertaken by anyone who is unwilling. You may love someone a great deal, but you might know that this is not the time for you to be a parent (we all know ourselves best). If you know you'd be a lousy father, or mother....you would damage the child....and might even leave the child at some point because of your own frustrations and inadequacies.
That being said....if you do love your partner, and your partner desperately wants a child....you might want to offer to sacrifice your relationship and give your partner the opportunity they want so much to have a child with someone else....after explaining that you offer out of love.Like (1)

HAHA! no! not at all haha! Cause you can definitely love someone without giving them a child... its kinda absurt to think that love = child. They are not the same. One is love, the other is procreation... You can also give someone a child without loving them... :/

No,just because you love them doesn't mean you have to have children with them,I think whoever said that is stupid IMO,I don't wanna have children because I just don't…

I disagree. Some people just do not want children. That doesn't diminish their validity as loving people, but it is something that would need to be addressed and resolved in the relationship.

If I hated them I would still give them a child. Specifically, my youngest. He doesn't listen, won't get a hair cut and doesn't do that well in school. Interested?

No because it claims that love can only be proven through the creation of a child. This is not at all the case, as one can have a child and the man who created it can flee like a frightened deer, that isn't love, that's using you. If you loved someone, you would marry that person to solidify the relationship and your devotion to that person.

I disagree, I think you can love someone with your entire being and not give them a child. And what about those who are sterile? Can they never love someone?

I have five adult kids that I would be happy to give away. No love needed.

No. You have to be ready and willing to have a child and being in love has nothing to do with that.
