Many have heard in childhood that parents are not chosen. But it often happens that married couples who dream of children cannot become parents. And, on the contrary, for those who did not even think about procreation, God's gift in the form of a baby becomes a real surprise. Why is this happening? Who determines the birth of a child in a particular family? This is what representatives of the ROC and supporters of reincarnation say.
The opinion of the Russian Orthodox Church
As a rule, priests confine themselves to the phrase: "Everything is God's will." The Orthodox Church has no specific opinion about how the Lord chooses people who are destined to become parents.
However, about the reasons for the absence of offspring, the ministers of the ROC say the following:
- the couple is not mentally ready for the appearance of a child;
- there are grave sins that they have not atoned for;
- low level of spiritual culture;
- artificial invasion of the process of fertilization and childbirth (abortion, IVF, etc.).
This issue can be somewhat clarified if we turn to the instructions of Elder Paisius of Athos. This holy man said that the readiness of a couple for the appearance of a baby is determined personally by God. Only he decides who to give the miracle of birth, and who to leave without children. Spouses can only accept the will of the Lord and leave this issue to his discretion.

Reincarnation supporters
Reincarnation is the teaching about the transmigration of souls. Proponents of this concept are sure that the human soul undergoes several rebirths and chooses where and when to reborn. There are no forces in the Universe (in this context - God) that could control the process of reincarnation. He obeys only the law of karma - everything that happens in a person's current life is a consequence of his actions and deeds in previous lives.
Before the next rebirth, the soul chooses not only the people to whom it will be born in the form of a baby, but also a new life scenario. Thus, she fulfills her destiny. In our world, such conditions should be created for the soul in which it could develop, and not just exist comfortably.
People who deliberately abandoned their children in the past have the minimum chances of becoming the chosen ones of an immortal soul. This can be both termination of pregnancy and leaving the child in an orphanage.

In addition, reincarnation explains childlessness by the following reasons:
- partners do not suit each other spiritually;
- they have subconscious fears, unwillingness to take responsibility;
- the presence of negative attitudes towards yourself and others.
In other words, in the absence of obvious health problems, you need to work on your own karma, getting rid of negative emotions and destructive behavior.
