the best part about having children is you get to buy and play with all the cool toys you wanted but your parents never did get for you when you were a child.
Other than that, the next best reason to have children is if you thought you were getting too much sleep.
So glad I grew up before the original age of cartoons slowly went away and the word hero was terribly diluted. Didn't take me long to think about the one that would likely be at the top of my "heroes" list. When it was still on the tube, I didn't know any other boys who wouldn't want to be Jonny Quest. Not a superhero show or all out fantasy situation like most others, more of a young Indiana Jones feel. Quite a bit less sanitized than most other cartoons, bad guys die, often in spectacular fashion- http://www.classicjq.com/info/lists/JQBadGuys.aspx . Liked most of the more mainstream formula hand drawn hero toons too, probably Thundarr the Barbarian the most. Demon dogs! how times have changed.
