If you want your population to have a better chance of survival without medical care then you kind of have to have kids with a small sized population.
When the population is approaching ten billion and you don't know whether the planet can provide enough food and other necessities then it could be considered selfish to have children IMO, but just because life may be a little hard for your offspring it doesn't mean it'll be a horrible existence, it could be more fulfilling for the people of Novus.
To give my answer I'd have kids if someone wanted to have kids with me on Novus and I'd provide my seed if it was necessary for the survival of our population, hopefully it wouldn't have to be with someone I don't like though, sure I could have found a lady or two who I'd be happy to have children with amongst Destiny's crew.

I doubt there will be any government services around to care for the elderly, particularly if the people stranded there don't reproduce. Having kids is pretty normal in that sort of cirucumstance, it would be essential to long term survival. That's not selfish any more than having kids in our day and age is selfish.
Having kids would be essential for survival, "safety in numbers" and all. Also, instinct would overcome in the end, nature wants us to procreate, and it would happen.sigpic
