    Lets talk about future plans of possibly having children! I think at some point I'd like to have one child, but really scared of the responsibility as I'm not confident in my ability to successfully raise a child haha
     
    Yeah....I'm not having kids. Ever. I don't like babies, and I really, really doubt that I'd make a good parent.
     
    Strange, I really really want a daughter. I'd be happy with a son too though.
    However I don't know if I'll ever be able to afford one, with all the food and clothing and shelter.

    And I really dislike bratty hyperactive children. I'm only good with the quiet and shy children. They're the sweetest and they just want to be someone's friend so I like them and know what they went through lol.
     
    I have a one-year-old. She makes me feel pretty whole as a person and I get quite a bit of enjoyment just talking to her. She may have no idea what I am saying, but she will reply with gestures and babbling.

    As for having more, it's probably not going to happen.

    For some background, I never wanted kids. I was more interested in the career path, but it happened and my fiancé wanted kids badly anyway (conspiracy?).

    In spite of my general dislike for loud, noisy children, I am happy with my little girl. Apparently, I am a kickass parent, too. Time flies and I could have sworn I just got out of the hospital the other day. They weren't kidding when they said they grow up fast.
     
    I would like to be a father one day. And yeah, I dunno what else to say besides that. lol

    I get along well with my younger cousins. And, maximum two I think, because I've enjoyed having a sibling and think it's great to have a constant presence like that.
     
    I don't want any kids. My future plans do not involve being me being a housewife, or anything among those lines. I'm tired of people telling me that "I'll change my mind once I'm older". Well, **** you, not everyone has the same goals in life.
     
    No thank you.

    I hate children, and I don't think the world is/will ever be ready for more than one me.
     
    I don't have any plans to have kids, but I also don't have any prejudice against having them either.
     
    I'm super afraid of my life being skewed financially upon having kids so I'll have to be super comfortable in that respect before even CONSIDERING it, regardless of my husband/boyfriend's feelings. Hopefully they're sensible enough to be in the same state of mind I am.
     
    Yeah, I don't think I will. Not only would it be hard for me to put a wife/fiance through the arduous nine months of carrying and childbirth, but I don't want to get abusive and always have to scream at them chasing them around whenever they would do something stupid. My parents always freaking over small things really turns me off from this.
     
    I wouldn't mind having a Child at all. I already have a very good job, so I won't have to worry about needing money. I want to experience having a child. I think it would be enjoyable! I'm aiming for a girl, but a boy wouldn't be bad. :3
     
    I might adopt a child from a third world country once I get my own life settled. Emphasis on might, being a single foster parent will certainly have its challenges.
     
    I've thought about this a lot, and I definitely don't want kids. Just trying to keep up with them without taking your eye off of them for a single moment is way too stressful for me. However, I am not against adopting a child, but they can't be a toddler. A kid that already has a personality blossoming out of them that I wouldn't have to tell them that they're adopted would be great, I think. It's just the toddler part that gets me.
     
    I'm very secure in my decision that I don't want children. Not only do I not want a relationship with someone (so I'd be a single parent), I don't want someone hanging around me that needs all of my attention all the time. I need my space, peace and quiet, and the time to do what I want to do whenever I want to do it.

    Which is why I have cats.
     
    One or two. I think I'd make a good parent when my finances etc. are in check.

    We'll see how things go, though! Very surprised at the number of people not wanting to be parents at all, tbh.
     
    I've never really been that fond of children, but maybe it'll be different when it's my own kid. Those screaming kids in restaurants (I swear, there's always one) don't really do a lot to change my opinion, though in those cases it may just be because of bad parenting (I mean, if I can teach a dog to be quiet on command I really don't understand how some people can let their kids scream and be little brats in public). But I guess the handful of "good" kids I have interacted with so far are okay.

    So it's a maybe for me, I'm open to the idea of having kids one day. It's not just that I don't really want kids, I'm just fairly confident that I would not be a good mom - when I look at how selfless my mom can be, I just don't think I could be like that.
     
    I'm not having my own child, that's for sure. However, I always liked the idea of fostering but first I'd save up a lot of money, buy quite a big house and then have about two foster children. I'd do that in my mid 30's though because I'd like to live a little first.
