2 (.5) kids

my answer: yeah I want kids. I'd be a great dad.

Ladies, who wants to bear the fruit of my loins?

My parents passed the child-hating gene on to me. So hell to the no.

9/8/2009 2:53:15 PM

I love children but really don't like babies. And I have awful genes. I'd adopt, but only if I had a good husband to help me raise them. And the chances of me finding a husband are slim to none.

That said, children do not appear to be in my future.

Why is that?

9/8/2009 3:02:51 PM

I don't like babies, I don't like toddlers, I don't like preschoolers, I don't like tweens, I don't like teens, I don't like young adults. Other than that, kid's are great.

9/8/2009 3:04:44 PM

No kids for me.

9/8/2009 3:08:06 PM

^^ Yes, I should have said that I really only LOVE kids ages 5 to 10. I only like some kids who are older than that.

^^^ And I probably won't marry because I'm girlfriend material, not wife material. Most men who want wives also want kids and a wedding. And I don't intend to have kids or a wedding with more than ten guests. Civil ceremony, sure.

Weddings are kinda stupid, IMO. Kids on the other hand, have upside.

Weddings seem like a waste of money to me. Then you make all your friends come from all over to see you walk up to some dude/chick whose beliefs you may or may not agree with, and say some silly words. WORDS!!

I think she's just saying these things to turn all the guys on. Your diabolical plan worked!

9/8/2009 3:30:57 PM

I hate everything about weddings other than the open bar. And seeing Grandma drunk.

These things I can see at Christmas.

9/8/2009 3:31:58 PM

^me too (except I can see my grandma drunk most weekends haha). I want to elope... just call my close friends and be like "cancel your weekend plans, we're going to Vegas!"

Yes.

Because there are precious few people now who have their shit straight, take responsibility for their own actions, and who have a basic grasp on common fucking courtesy. Those are some of the traits I hope/plan to instill in my young'ns. Plus, cocksmoker is grossly underrepresented in everyday speech, and I want to have a slight effect on that, too

I'm so not ready for them now, though.

^^ The guys don't always want a wedding, but I've dated guys who said they would have to have an actual wedding to make their mother happy.

The issue with those guys isn't about the wedding

9/8/2009 3:34:23 PM

^^
k, baby.

Truth

I want kids because there is so much to em, but I could live without a big ceremony, which is a huge waste of cash.

A life time of entertainment > a day's entertainment

9/8/2009 3:36:20 PM

I like attending weddings if they have an open bar, but I would have a panic attack if I had to walk down an aisle with people looking at me.

And then to stand up there for god knows how long with people looking at you? I don't understand how people do it. The thought terrifies me.

9/8/2009 3:41:03 PM

my answer is what the average college educated american would say. think about it...

9/8/2009 3:45:18 PM

don't worry DNL - no chick would ever marry / fuck you - you are safe from such life altering questions.

9/8/2009 3:47:14 PM

Yes, I guess I'm selfish because I want kids, oh well. I've heard it all now.

9/8/2009 3:48:04 PM

^ That's not selfish. It's a normal part of life.

Haha, Lucy - this isn't always the case! It took longer for everyone to walk down the aisle and take their place than it did for Sister Preacher to spit out a few words and tell us to leave.

9/8/2009 3:51:45 PM

I didn't actually read this thread, so did someone already say "depends, what are you doin later?"

if not,

"depends, what are you doin later?"

9/8/2009 3:53:22 PM

Yes, eventually, but only 1 or 2

9/8/2009 3:53:53 PM

^^ You

^^^ True! But I think I would probably be sick just from the walk down the aisle. Sister Preacher's little pre-wedding drive was longer than the ceremony.

9/8/2009 3:54:53 PM

Dude, seriously! What preacher doesn't have your standard run-of-the-mill vows memorized!?

9/8/2009 3:55:55 PM

Did you find Sister Preacher on craigslist? Or on a street corner?

9/8/2009 3:57:06 PM

I want kids. I think kids are awesome and I can't wait to have children to raise and to prove that it is possible to have children that are spoiled brats.

9/8/2009 3:57:27 PM

I think lucy is me, but trendier and fitter.

Altho I do feel sad I won't be passing on my superior genes. I feel like I'm letting down evolution by not trying to balance out such spawn as people like Ambrosia might produce.

9/8/2009 3:58:24 PM

^^^Sister Preacher came recommended by my photographer who got herself knocked up and was 7 months pregnant on the day of my wedding.

I had all sorts of WTF in my wedding come to think of it. It's best if I don't ever do that whole "get married" thing again!

9/8/2009 3:59:08 PM

^^ We MUST get a beer together when I'm in town.

^ And I will beat your ass if you get married again. Renewing your vows is a-okay.

hey look..another thread where ggmon tries to talk to me

9/8/2009 4:05:56 PM

I'm looking forward to having kids... it's just not right now. Maybe a year or two or three... down the road

9/8/2009 4:12:03 PM

9/8/2009 4:19:47 PM

Only if you promise good sex0r.

9/8/2009 5:00:39 PM

i feel guilty not having kids. i mean, all my ancestors up until this point have done their part, shouldn't i continue the line?

but i definitely see myself still having my own life but with kids in it. i wouldnt have kids if i intended on allowing my life to completely revolve around them.

however, i dont ever see myself having a kid or adopting if i was still single at some point in my life. i dont think the desire to have kids is so strong in me that i would knowingly go it alone
