Right, mental illness and addiction runs rampant on both sides of my family. I definitely wouldnt want to give these characteristics to a kid. That would be horrible. I also am uncertain about my parenting abilities. Not that Id neglect my child, but I see alot of my mom in me when it comes to other traits. I would hate to find out I am like my mom in the parenting department. I have said I wouldnt hit/beat my kids. I definitely think physical punishment is okay under certain terms, spanks and all that, but my mom beat the shit out of me as a kid. it was like she saw red and then got off on hurting me. Id hate to find that trait in myself. I dont know what I would do with myself.

As is anything in our lives though, so it's a moot point. Having kids is as pointless as not having kids on the cosmic scale.

We give something purpose, that is something entirely human. The universe has nothing to do with what meaning we give our lives. If we basify our desires and needs in such a way that the largest denominator needlessly outweighs what is relevant to us, our lives would quickly lose meaning to the point of having no purpose at all. Life is relative to the observer, if you choose to see the importance in front of you then that is what you'll see.

Couldn't have any of my own so I ended up looking after someone else's. It's not the boys fault their father wanted little to do with them and they needed some male to care for them. Of course they've brought a lot of joy and meaning to my life so I figure it was sperm daddy who was the ultimate loser. Plus I got his woman and she's a topper so he was a fool.
I'd be willing to bet that most of you saying no way to kids will have a few within 20 years time. Not wanting them when you're young goes with the territory. Tastes and feelings naturally change with time, even when you are thoroughly convinced they will never change.

I got a vasectomy in college and never looked back. I hate children, and if I had them they would hate me. Also, I have a host of medical/mental problems.

NO. I am 51 and have been through 3 abortions (that I know of) and am VERY happy that I never had them. It was agreed by both parties to terminate. I have thought about what it would have been like and the negatives outweigh the positives. I feel like one has to have a certain amount of money and and at least some brains/intelligence. A lot of people have kids because they think that is what they are supposed to do/have a complete and fulfilling life blah blah blah.
The pressure of friends, family, movies, peers etc to procreate makes me sick honestly. One better have the means and the intelligence to pass on to the next generation of children. Frivolously having kids just to "pass on the bloodline because I am the last male" and other such nonsense is a problem.

You should get a vasectomy. Crazy people are known for being bad at pulling out.

LOL that was hilarious, I wanna watch a full show of that guy.
Got a kid that will be here in 11 days, so yeah were planning on it. I guess we decided to just because the time came for us to either do it, or it never happen. And in fact that time passed and we thought our window of opportunity was over, then all of a sudden bam shes pregnant. We would have been fine either way, kids/no kids. But now that weve been planning for nearly 9 straight months on this girl coming out into the world, I am all in. ~9 months of ultrasounds and watching her jump around on screen, feeling her kick and tumble around every night, and go nuts when I get close to my wifes stomach and start reading. Its insane man.
If you find the right person and decide you would like to raise a little copy of yourselves as a team together, and that you can teach pretty much whatever you want to, I say take the opportunity. But to each their own at the same time, I totally get either point of view.

Already have one. Coming on 2 years old now. Coolest little guy ever.
We always said we didn't want a kid... I never thought I would have kids ever.
But then right around 32.. it just happened.. and we went with it..
It's extremely hard but also extremely rewarding. Nothing brings me joy like seeing my son learning and growing (fast as FUCK!!!) and being happy.. he's like a little mini me.. it blows my mind sometimes.

well my biological clock in my nuts is ticking and if I had one kid i'd need another otherwise it would become to shy/spoiled/boring then you need to get health insurance so thats like 120,000 240,000... a place to live that's anywhere 120,000-200,000 at the very least and it's in the ghetto then it needs to learn something 20,000-40,000 then it needs transportation 20,000 car insurance 10,000
so 310,000 on one child
oh yeah and property tax ok make that
450,000
lets see how much i have now 330$ any day now that 15 dollar min wage is going to make me rich i been (not) working all these years on 7.25 an hour lucky me

Never had any interest and my sister finally stepped up to the plate and popped out twins to keep my mom occupied, so the pressure is off. Wife brought one but he just turned 18 so I can enjoy the company without ever changing a diaper. Once I found out she was live I went and got fixed right away.
