I personally wouldn't decide to have kids in a warzone... But what context are you referring to? Is there any context outside of sudden, subjectively unlikely disaster where the quote is meaningful?
...but it's okay if others do it? How is that different from saying, "I personally woudn't decide to abuse children..."

Is it the same to die without ever abusing children and to die childless?
