    • This is another reason I can't make myself have children. I would hate to feel trapped in a situation and not be able to get myself out of it. I'm not phobic of responsibility but I couldn't make a 20 year commitment like that.

    I can see where you're coming from, honestly, having children is a big pain in the butt. Question is, are your parents okay with that?

    • Raising children isn't rocket surgery, guys.

    So what you do is, you stick the kid out on the street corner and you leave him there. If you come back a week later and the kid's still there, you got yourself a stupid ****in' kid.

    I don't plan on having kids either and I couldn't care less about what my parents think of it. XD

    I mean, it's my life, not theirs, so why should I let their feelings on the subject affect how I live my life? I just can't imagine myself having kids for pretty much the same reason as Andy. I just realized that the first statement probably sounds a lot harsher then I wanted it to be.

    • I'm actually really thankful my own parents don't pressure me to have kids. I have no desire to have any whatsoever (for various reasons), and while I haven't told them that outright they do understand that some people don't want kids and all that.

    My mother in law on the other hand...has apparently lamented to my parents about how it doesn't look like we'll be having kids here anytime soon haha. Whatever!

    • Grandchildren have the cuteness of children without the effort, hence why grandparents love/want them.

    However, with 7 billion people in the world, not having a child is no biggie.

    I... I sat in my couch beside my boyfriend watching TV the other night and just suddenly felt that this picture would be complete if there was a kid sitting in between us. So yeah, I want children. Within a reasonable amount of years even.

    Never want to be preggies though so that's a problem ahahahah

    • It's all an illusion though, that image. That child is not gonna be sitting between you, it's gonna be squirming and saying "Mommy I'm bored" until you just want to throttle it.

    but when they grow up they're going to be squirming about not wanting to have children

    it's an endless cycle

    • wow what an endless cycle zeffy

    so endless it had to be posted twice


    Kids are probably going to be a go for me, especially when it's with the one I love. What she wants will be taken into consideration of course, but if she doesn't want any I'm going to be very unhappy. :(

    • Everybody's biological clocks are telling them they need children. You don't, people; you can be just as happy without them - maybe even happier!

    You'll get over not wanting to be pregnant -- it all pays off in the end. Life without my son would not be a life I'd want to live. <3

    • I assume the human mind is built to be better with a child. The physical side is all geared towards survival, which includes survival of the human race, hence why men like boobs. Boobs are used to feed a baby, so it's associated with achieving one of our aims.

    Therefore, I can only imagine the human mind gears itself to survival via a want of children.

    Not saying you have to want a child, but it's a bit unfair to say people don't need children. Some do.
