If you have not dealt with something the DSB before, you’re probably drastically overestimating how much mental effort they are willing to expend to help you. (I dealt with a similar agency, the California Department of Rehabilitation, many years ago.)
Although it is of course good for you to try to estimate how much mental effort they are willing to make in real time during the interview, I suggest the plan you go into the meeting with assume it is low. E.g. you might consider just asking for a notetaker over and over again.
Try to appear a little dumber than you actually are.
I would not risk alienating your parents to try for a deeper conversation with DSB staff.
My impression is that some people want children very much, but the majority have children as a result of liking sex plus being willing to raise children once the children exist plus social pressure.
You do get the occasional sperm substitution scandal which seems like a very pure example of a desire to have children.

I think you replied to the wrong comment.
You’re right.
