Forget seasons 1-5 and focus on season six, from Jack's "child" to Sawyer being a cop to Hurley being a multimillionaire. Add to the fact about the ambiguous power source to the MIB not having a name to Jack = Jacob and so on. He has no children (hence, Tawaret).
It was a great series and I'm not "mad" about the ending but it is what it is:
A complete fabrication on Jack's part while dying in a jungle immediately after a plane crash.
We saw his pathetic life. Failed marriage, no children, inferiority complex, dead father. He "crash lands" on a island where he's the hero.
He saves the lives of people he "touched" on the plane, he makes strong decisions and becomes a leader: something he could never accomplish or do in real life.
The rest, he assumes. It's all a byproduct of his imagination as he lies dying. A justification for being weak and lame.
His father leads him to the actual light.
End of story.

You cant just tell us to forget the first 5 seasons. If anything was in his head it was the flash sideways, but thats it.
