Having Children...yes or no?

[PrototypeC]

I think of it this way; most of my hobbies today involve paying now for fun later. By then, allowing for some new things in my life, having a kid would basically be trading one or two of them for taking care of a little me. I can compare it to Warhammer 40k... expensive in the long run but day-to-day money it hardly matters.

Keeping in mind, kids suck only as much as their parents, so the screaming little gremlins at your local Wal-Mart? You know who to blame.

But I refreshed three times! Ugh... double post.

The closest I'll ever come to even wanting children will be to adopt. Actual infertility aside, I've never wanted to be any part in the biological creation of a child, and even if I do adopt, it'll be many, many years down the line. There's too much stuff I want to do with my life to give a 20 year chunk up to being a parent.

I hate other people's kids...they're annoying.

But I quite like the thought of having my own one day, however not for a long long time.

I wouldn't mind a boy and a girl, and I'd probably till about I was like 25-26 to have any kids so I can get college out of the way, and be as successful as I can be by that time.

Only one. Around my late 20's early 30's, depending on how set my career is. I'd preferably want a son, and I shall name him Richard. Only to call him "Dick".

I'm definitely not a kid person at the moment. However, I wasn't a dog person once, and when my family got a dog that changed fast. Still, I'm afraid to risk having a child and finding out I still hate kids.

It is your duty as a human being to have kids. The reason you were put on this earth (and all living things for that matter) was to procreate and ensure the survival of our species....plus isn't it fun to have a mini you walking around the planet?

 

[Katherine Kerensky]

Meh, I could not have kids, even if I wanted to. Lucky me, infertile, and nonsexual.
Although I have been having the strangest urges to have a child recently, despite being nonsexual...
Oh well, I'm working on it... progress is slow, but it always is... and it always works...
Edit: Oh, and I also hate kids. Can't stand them being so noisy. And the crying has quite an effect of me, which I don't like. Which further adds to my confusion as to my recent urges...

 

[aww yea]

am i the only one thats all for it?? like seriously first chance out of uni thats it... and im not even in uni yet.

its not even that i particularly like kids (ive got no problem with them im just not really.... good with them) its just a stage of life i really dont feel like missing.



besides who else are you guys going to pass your empire on to?

 

[Mr Montmorency]

No. The world doesn't need any more children, and you all insult me for selfishly thinking there needs to be another.

 

[Infernai]

When I'm old enough and meet someone i actually am prepared to spend the rest of my life with, then yes i will have children with them.

 

[Jark212]

I'd like to have kids one day, but not until I'm in a stable relationship and have a good paying job to support my family with. Ahh, the American dream...

 

[dex-dex]

well since i would be the one who gets the great gift of life growin IN me
i would say hell no for now.

when i have a stable relationship and the cash monies for a child then maybe. It would only be one though maybe two but i can't believe women want to have like ten kids CRAZY!!!

 

[Timmons]

Yes.. but only when i am happily married and with enough money to maintain them, blah blah blah. its typical, but its the best option, otherwise they'd be a pain :/ having kids gives so much more reason for your existence

 

[Above]

Never. Plain and simple.

I'd consider a vasectomy over the possibility of kids.

for me?

first part,YES!
Second part,not so sure... xD

 

[Hosker]

I really can't see myself ever having them, I'm not too fond of children. In small does they can be tolerable.....Very small doses.

 

[Wereduck]

Recently broke up with my fiancee and the one thing I will sorely miss is her daughter. I had never seriously thought about children before but having a family was a revelation.

Expensive and definitely a job for two, but kid >> anything else. I'll have to be really certain about my duck-ette to avoid another false start but in time I'll be thrilled to try again.

 

[Zackary Yakumo]
