Your personal preference is noted. You detest the use of the word breed when it comes to human beings. And yet, I use it all the time in that context and will continue to do so. Apparently others use it that way, too, and I assume they will continue to do so, as well. Guess you will have to get over it. My two are adults now (virtually) but it is still like an adventure being around them. I wouldn't have missed the experience for the world. Having said that, I certainly respect other peoples' choices in this regard. I have never understood why it was OK to pressure people to have children, or even imply that a decision to remain childless is wrong. There are plenty of people in the world, no reason to have more.
