    Default Would you ever want to have kids?

    If you for whatever reason got married and were grown would you want to have children?
    I check into small hotel a few kilometers from Kiev. It is late. I am tired. I tell woman at desk I want a room. She tells me room number and give key. "But one more thing comrade; there is one room without number and always lock. Don't even peek in there." I take key and go to room to sleep. Night comes and I hear trickling of water. It comes from the room across. I cannot sleep so I open door. It is coming from room with no number. I pound on door. No response. I look in keyhole. I see nothing except red. Water still trickling. I go down to front desk to complain. "By the way who is in that room?" She look at me and begin to tell story. There was woman in there. Murdered by her husband. Skin all white, except her eyes, which were red. I tell her I don't give a . Stop the water trickling or give me refund. She gave me 100 ruble credit and free breakfast. Such is life in Moscow

    Of course I would want to have children. I love children, I love the prospect of being able to be called "dad", of being able to guide him/her on his/her travels through life, and to have a little guy/gal that thinks I'm the only thing that will make the monsters under the bed go away.

    Plus it would give me and my wife something else to have in common, and yet to fight about. But it's all part of that idyllic dream family you see so much on TV.

    Of course, I would not rush into anything, and I wouldn't want to have a kid if I couldn't honestly support them well. But in the basis of the question, yes, I would want little mini-me's running around in the world at some point in time.

    I plan on having several kids. I feel the ultimate climax of my existence will invariably be their existence and success and the existence and success of their children.

    As a teenager, I was taken to various houses and flats above takeaways in the north of England, to be beaten, tortured and raped over 100 times. I was called a “white slag” and “white ****” as they beat me.

    This is my reasoning.

    If you have children it is your responsibility to feed them, educate them or pay for that, and otherwise for bringing them up to be good people right? This my friend, cost money and time. So if I don't have children, I can work 8 hour a day or maybe even less, because I don't eat much and neither does my computer. If I do have children, it's off to multiple sessions of extra overtime work and getting worked up for the children's behavior, not to mention a slew of other problems that might arise from the process of trying to bring up a child right. I'm looking at adolescence and all that crap. No way in heaven or hell if they exist am I going to leave my precious computer for that.

    LOL. I have 3 kids, and I've been pressuring for more for the last 5 or 6 years but I won't get my way. After all, I've seen the hell a woman goes through carrying a child and pushing it out more than once (oh God the horror), so it's her decision. My innate desire to spread my seed further has been dampened, now the man jizz just goes to waste, damn it.

    Becoming a father changed my life and my person irrevocably. It's the greatest thing that can happen to a man. No longer was I a selfish prat with a penis, but I was transformed within a few months into a caretaker, provider and counsellor for others, and a person who lives for others moreso than for myself.

    I am in all honesty a completely different person now, and I have no regrets. You can't regret having kids, unless you're a complete douche. I'd lay down my life for my bubs in a moment.

    It's a natural stage in life, a part of a man's experiential progression.

    Your post comes straight from the book of ''Me'' about 20 years ago, so I empathize, but you are temporarily deluded. Just wait and see.

    Do what I did - marry up. I'm a stay at home dad and haven't had a a job in more than 6 years!
    I am green with envy, you complete *****!

    I've worked my arse off for years supporting my family, and now my wife has started this productive business......do I get to sit down, make lunches, vacuum, and spend most of the day on the PC now? Nooooooo........Do I get to ask her for hundreds of dollars a week now......Noooooooooo........ I still give, and give, and give more!

    Well, in my country marriages don't work that way unfortunately. Sometimes divorces happen because the man does not literally man up and go out there and find a job. It's like begging for sexism.

    Why is marriage a prerequisite in this scenario?

    My nit-picking aside as of this very moment I cannot answer yes or no. I'm still young (18) and the thought of having kids at this moment sounds something like hell, growing up in a family with many siblings and many cousins, so I am urged to say no.

    If I met the right person I think I could have children, but thats yet to happen.

    Yeah I absolutely plan on having children one day.
    I have approximate answers and possible beliefs, and different degrees of certainty about different things, but I’m not absolutely sure of anything, and many things I don’t know anything about. But I don’t have to know an answer. I don’t feel frightened by not knowing.

    I hate children, though any future wife I have will likely end up wanting them eventually so I voted yes. I hope by then I've developed an ability to tolerate them.
