Do You Want Kids?
 
Do You, I have been thinking about it, and I think I don't want any. If I do I want to adopt, but as more time goes by I don't think I want any.

edit- I just feel that I don't think I will like to raise them. I really love my nephew and niece but I don't think I want to go to the hassle of raising them.

No thanks. I find life terrifying enough as it is, without having the added responsibility of bringing up a child. I'll stick to being an uncle, which I'm very good at.

SynthethicalY 10.23.2007 10:51 AM

Yes that is what I am thinking as well sonicl.

i'd like to have a little boy when i'm older. Maybe in my late 20's/early 30's. But it really depends on what situation i am in at that time.

HECKLER SPRAY 10.23.2007 10:56 AM

Well, maybe, when I 'll be more mature. Or when I will have nothing else to do.
For the moment, I can't stand babies. When somebody puts me a kid into my arms, I don't know what to do with him.

Rob Instigator 10.23.2007 10:57 AM

don't want any, can't have any anyways. funny how life works out.

I'm the exact opposite. I am, honestly, brilliant with kids. I would make a great father, were it not for my fear of totally ballsing it up.

girlgun 10.23.2007 11:09 AM

i have one. I really only like mine. My boy rules. I never planned to have kids, but sometimes stuff happens. Im certainly not sorry, but i wont be having any more

mangajunky 10.23.2007 11:11 AM

I plan to adopt one after I get married. There's a lot of em out there, I don't need to make a new one. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Just not for me.

In fact, I don't know why but kids like me. That's embarassing, everytime they want to play with their stupid toys with me. I don't know what to do.

Your boy rules ? Does he listen to Sonic Youth ??:D

ThePits 10.23.2007 11:26 AM

I think children are great, especially when you can give them back to their owners when they start to smell

his favorite is Olivia Tremor Control. I think that Sonic Youth would be too noisy for him.

I knew that I'd raised the proper kind of music snob when at the drive-in-food-place, he rolled his eyes and said "modest mouse? at sonic? pfft!". ":rolleyes:"

I imagine you very well with a child, and I'm sure you'd be a very good father. :)

cryptowonderdruginvogue 10.23.2007 12:40 PM

Yes, I want to have one of my own and then adopt another one or two.

Danny Himself 10.23.2007 12:44 PM

MAIS OUI!

Yes.

Hip Priest 10.23.2007 01:46 PM

I used to teach sports to children, which was a cool job. My current workplace is often full of children, and I talk to them, teach them bits and pieces, and let them help out, which is great. I do alright as an uncle too, but neither me nor my partner want children of our own.

alteredcourse 10.23.2007 01:51 PM

i have rejected the thought of having kids forever.... i think i'd be too self-absorbed and lazy to give them all that they need . im still figuring things out and dont really expect to stop....if i cant take great care of myself , how could i expect to take care of a little bastard me ?

though me and my boyfriend have joked around about having them lately , im not sure why that is..... do i actually want to have some , but just dont think i could ? obviously it is at least not the right time for us (if ever ) .

sonicl would be a great dad .

girlgun 10.23.2007 02:03 PM

the thing about kids: you may think you're not equipped, or you're too self absorbed, or just not stable enough to have them.... but once you do.. you cease to be all those things which ultimately makes you a better person.

SpectralJulianIsNotDead 10.23.2007 02:07 PM

I put a maybe.

Women who don't like children/say they never want to have children turn me off.

But I wouldn't try for a child unless I thought I could give it a good life.


Girlgun's absolutely right. When I'm around kids I'm a much better person.


The only thing really terrifies me about children is that I'd be afraid they'd grow up into jerks.
