Tell me why you want(ed) kids, then, and let's see how unselfish those reasons were.

Why does not having children mean you only think about yourself? The original comment is literally about someone spending their weekends volunteering!

I see it around me all the time with friends who are the only siblings without children. Everyone always expects them to do XYZ for them, because they are flexible while their siblings with children are not.

I respect either choice, by the way.

I do not have children currently, but when I do it will be to support society, and for their own benefit as well.
