Raising a kid done right is a societal gain/benefit and can help those societal advancements. No one here is asking for a medal but the entire point of empathy at large is a recognition that people experience and feel differently than you do about certain things. That includes children.
Do you really believe only professionals and doctorates are societal benefits? Climate and environment is not a population problem but rather a capitalist problem of resource use/allocation. Replacement amounts of children (2) are one thing that is different than having like 5. There are societal problems with a lack of children which can be seen in Japan and will be seen in China as well as most western nations with low immigration.
The dictionary definition of empathy is : the action of understanding, being aware of, being sensitive to, and vicariously experiencing the feelings, thoughts, and experience of another.
You’re just trying to force your own values without attempting to understand an opposing viewpoint. So yeah, you lack empathy.
