> But maybe I'm just being harsh by thinking of children as side projects
yup, you definitely are. a lot, too.
> Why should having a baby be any different?
maybe because the society literally can't go forward without babies?

Technically true, but practically nonsense. We're at no danger of under-population. And if we were, it would be the government's job to subsidize having children, not Facebook's.
People who work in tech and choose to have babies are doing it as a luxury, not to push society forward.
So now having babies is a luxury. Jesus christ this is so wrong on so many levels.
Sure, maybe technically in some way, but absolutely not in any meaningful sense.
I'm not saying that FB employees need to have babies to keep society going, I said that everybody needs to have babies to keep society going.
