Debate What is it that gives our lives a meaning?

The most obvious and easily-explained answer, from both a religious and scientific perspective, is of course to have and raise children.

Back when I was a single guy I would have said that was absurd, but when I had kids I had an sudden change of attitude. It even made me think that my life had previously been rather shallow.

When you become a mother, you know the meaning of life. The demands of raising a child consume a lot of energy. But life is so good when you see a child call his or her mother for the first time.
