We are easily replaceable in everything except as parents.

Biologically yes…I would imagine a machine could do much of the parenting role more consistently and effectively than many humans though. Just like really wealthy people pay professionals to help raise their kids, I can imagine a robo nanny doing some of the heavy lifting teaching and raising kids some day.

Um, why would you need to raise children, much less have children to raise? Humans are outdated and nothing more than dead weight. The only humans that will exist are those that stay out of the way.

A child raised on breast milk from a machine would probably end up mentally ill. Also would you want a robot whipping your ass when you're late by exactly 3 seconds? Humans need the imperfections of their parents to learn their own.
