Kids???

I am way too selfish for kids.

 

I would love to have kids....however the way I would like to go about it is a little strange

If I was to carry the baby I would want it to be from my wives eggs and then a sperm donor that we chose together. However if she was the one to be pregnant I would want to use my eggs and then a sperm donor.

I just think this way it makes it more of the person who is not carrying the child feel a little closer and more bonded kind of like when a straight couple go to have a kid even thought he man can't carry it he still feels connected since he helped create the baby.

 

I'm iffy on whether I want them at all. I know that if I were to have them I would not want to be the biological father. There's way too much shit in my genes that would break my heart if I knew I passed onto my kid.

 

I'm a bit unsure, I definitely want a kid, singular. I want to maybe adopt a girl, but, another idea would be to use a donor, use my future wife's eggs, and then put them embryo in me. I'm not sure, both are interesting ideas.

 

I think I am too selfish to be a parent. I am too focused on my own life to stop it and devote it to someone else. I just don't think I'm wired to be a father.

 

I don't want kids.

I'm too selfish with my time and money.

I do tell everyone at work I have a "daughter".

My "daughter" is my pet rabbit.

 

Whenever my family nags me about having my own children, I always tell them "NO!".
However, I'm actually open to it. I wouldn't mind adopting. While, it would be nice to have biological children, I've got some health issues that I would be worried about passing on.

I always refer to my cat as being my daughter when my relatives ask.

 

I have three of them. It is easy and it is hard, a joy and a pain. Raising kids is part of being human, but it's something one gets into with eyes wide-open; it's not for everyone.

 

Umm I'm on the fence on this one. Everyone says I'm awesome with kids and I do like them but I don't really know if I want my own. We shall see!

 

I want one or possibly two children. I want to adopt as I would love to give a great home to a child who otherwise would not have one and I have no desire to have biological children. I am 28 now and would like this to happen before I am 40, preferably in the age range of 35-38.

 

I think I'll have kids, but I only want to adopt. Honestly, the thought of having biological kids has never interested me and probably never will. There are plenty of children out there who need a good home and a loving family. Plus the planet's already overpopulated. The last thing humanity needs is me spreading my horrible genes.

 

I am childfree, and I expect any woman I date to be as well.

 

My kids are 19 and 22 but I realized I want more. I went to visit my niece this weekend who had a 1 year birthday party for her son and I was really enthralled with this little guy. Being a parent is the best part of my life.

And you younger folk, don't sell yourself short; being a parent gives you a chance to parent a child the way you wish someone had parented you.

 

I have two kids and they are awesome.

Would I have more though....?

Not at this point in my life, but I'd never say never....

Happy days

 

I'm uncertain. I like kids, and I love spending time with my friend's baby, he's like a nephew to me. But I don't know if I have it in me to "step up" for a child. I feel like I could be persuaded either way, depending on what my (future) wife would want. But I feel like I'd want just one. I don't know how people manage with more than that.

 

I've always wanted at least one child. I promised myself to be a better, more accepting parent to my child(ren) than my parents were to me.

 

I've always (when young) dreamt of having a family of my own but as I grew up I realized my total and extreme lack of interest in women which makes it just a dream with no potential for it to ever become a reality. A real shame and one of the reasons I attempted suicide as I don't wanna grow old alone.

 

No I don't want to have kids. I would be too afraid of messing up. I am also not so fond of my childhood so I wouldn't want the same thing to happen to someone else. I was quiet and hid my emotions so it would kill me if I found out that my child was doing something similar and really hurting inside.

 

I want kids not any time soon! Maybe when I'm 30? I would love to adopt a young boy and girl, watching them run around the house. Hear the potter patter of my kids would be lovely!
If my son were gay I would give him a safe environment, one where he was free to express his sexuality. The same would apply to my daughter, but of one or both of them were straight I would teach them to respect the LGBT+ community and everyone in general I would tech my kids to be independent but not afraid to ask anyone for help! so yes in conclusion, I want kids
