Whoa whoa whoa. I hope that's ironically-intended because otherwise... You think it's selfless to have a child for the purpose of, what, imprinting your personality and beliefs upon it?
And for all you who keep talking about her would-have-been child being destined to solve the world's woes: a)Statistically unlikely. b)If there is such a thing as destiny that would foretell this, destiny would also have already dictated her particular child would not be the one to do it, as it would be her destiny to not be a mother.

And she could never act in accordance with her belief of helping the planet by adopting one of the millions of children who were born to irresponsible* parents who felt no reason to use the brain evolution gave them to think about or avoid that baser urge to breed themselves silly.

Yeah, it couldn't possibly be his personality. He certainly isn't that unattractive. Not to mention 5000 marriage proposals? He can't possibly be really trying to get a "yes."
Might depend on the pet's personality and history. A friendly dog who was never abandoned would probably enjoy this more than one who was, for instance.
