Do You Want Kids?>>>

all of this wasted pain..
I've already raised my brother and sister because my mother was an idiot and couldn't do it. I know how it works, I'm just not sure if I want kids now. Who knows....

several events contributed to my "yes."
1)my friend stacy, long of the "no kids!" camp, went over to the other side. She'd always argued the overpopulation/scarier-world-now positions and rationalised her changing view thusly: "there are so many morons out there having kids, we felt it was our duty to improve the gene pool."
2)The look of bewilderment on my dad's face, at a family gathering, when he was surrounded by grandchildren whose names he could not keep straight in his head. We all love him, for all his faults, and I recognised that love as a tremendous force for good.
3)my friend robbie had a son who reminded me a lot of my self when I was a child. Caleb wanted me as a parent, at one point, and called me "daddy," once, by accident.
It'd be nice to have a piece of my DNA walking around, but i'm not overly attached to that idea. Just sharing the responsibility for someone else's child - being a bit more than part of the village it takes to raise a child... i believe that would be tremendously rewarding in ways i cannot even conceive.
I might even grow up, myself.

I'll go with maybe. If my partner and I are financially stable and he wants to, I would seriously consider it.

I found that out the hard way. My poor dog. Get a dog because you are ready for a DOG, not as a substitute for human affection.
someone told me, "there are two kinds of people in the world: children and parents.

No children for us--I don't even like other peoples' kids. We're both focused on our careers and I can't imagine having to make time for a little ankle bitter. I can just see the scenero, getting home after working sixteen hours and having Alpha Jr. wanting to hear a story or play hide in seek. I'll pass. It's a struggle to fit in time for the dog--and she's awfully cute and fun!
No thats too much of a big responsibility unlike a dog you can take him outside he does his business and he lays in the bed with u and minds his own business. I'm not into changing diapers and trying to raise it for 18 years
Honestly its really annoying when someone especially my family asks me are you going to have kids in the future and when i say no. They say it will change wait until you meet that right woman. I hope you don't make a girl pregnant when you have your first sex

maybz.
it's also not the same as leaving that prospective child to rot in a foreign orphanedge or foster care system.

Definately, just can't understand how people can not want to have kids. Don't get me wrong I joke around about banning "ankle snappers" and "crotch-fruit" from public places and all that. But I can't wait till the day when i feel that I'm ready to either bring a kid into this world, or take care of one (or more) who needs someone to look after them.

Since you asked so nicely (how unusual!!), I will say this:
We have 3 children and are in the process of adopting again...domestic this time and a newborn (or two).
Being a Dad is a fantastic blessing and joy. I have never minded any of the hard work, the sleepless nights, the puking, wet beds or nightmares. Nothing can compare to a child climbing into your bed in the middle of the night and cuddling up between you. Hearing someone call you Daddy, Dad or Pops is like music to your ears.
You can't be selfish and be a good parent, but then the rewards are so much greater than the effort you put into it.
Picture a small Romanian boy watching Kermit the Frog singing The Rainbow Connection in the muppet voice...the giggles that went clear to his toes. Gosh, you can't beat it!
On the other hand, the questions about sex always come up at the weirdest times. Last fall, at the lake, our youngest awakened us hungry for breakfast at 5 am. We (my partner and I) had just gone to sleep at 3 am
badgrin. We had the following conversation:
Lucas: Daddy, I'm hungry. Will you make me french toast?
Me: OK, what time is it?
Lucas:I don't know, Daddy, but my stomach wants food.
Me: (groans) Sure, baby.
I throw back the sheet and sit on the edge of the bed.
Lucas: Daddy, you're naked.
Me: oops (quickly covering my shame)
Lucas
addy, why were you sleeping at the bottom of the bed? (don't ask)Me: Umm....(too sleepy to come up with an answer). Go get the oranges for squeezing, Luc.
Lucas: OK!
5 minutes later in the kitchen:
Lucas: Daddy, why do guys get erections?
Me:We had a talk about sex, remember?
Lucas: I know, but why does it happen when you were asleep? (notice he said 'you were asleep').
Me: Luc, it is 5 am, do we have to have this conversation now?
Lucas:Can I have sausage with my french toast, too?
Thank God for short attention spans!
Just a day in the life.

We have one, and he's 8 months old. He can't talk yet, but has a way of getting your attention

May I refer you to Sixthson's enlightening post. The poor man was rudely accosted at 5:00 am by a child that wanted french toast and sausage. So yeah, I'll pass.
Sixthson, you seriously need to invest in some Pop Tarts! No cooking required and they're actually relatively healthy.
