I would love to have kids one day but I wouldn't want them going through what I have in life, that really scares me.

I do want to have kids, but I don't know if it ever happens. At this rate I'll be way too old to have kids when I finally meet someone (if ever), plus, I really don't want to have kids before I've gotten better. No kid needs a messed up mom.

No thank you. I think children are only adorable if they are not yours. Besides, I don't feel an affinity with kids, I think they are just messy and noisy, I don't think I can stand waking up like 3 times a night just to feed them milk and change diapers, it would drive me crazy. Also with raising living costs, raising children nowadays are too expensive. And really, as it is, I already have ENOUGH problems, and children would only compound those problems and make my life worse than it already is, so no thanks, I'll rather not have kids.

My boyfriend's been talking at me about kids.

"We're gonna have a few kids. Not too many, but just the right amount. And we'll have a reasonable sized house and a garden, you can have your little vegetable patch as long as I can have a shed. Etcetcetc".

The way he talks about the future makes me want children.
So at the moment, I do.
But that could change, I'm only 15.

If I ever get to be with a woman I love, I would like to have some children, yes. By this time though I have no intention of still being socially anxious, and I would make it my life's goal to bring them up without passing on my own weaknesses to them (meaning I would SHOW no weakness when in front of them.)

My plans right now are to join the military (RAF) in 2 years time. If that doesnt change me then nothing will. So after that time, I would like some little 'uns 🙂

in the mental state i am in right now, i would have to say no

I dislike children/babies. They're a lot of work and they're bratty, dirty, ugly, smelly little midgets.
Pregnancy is not something I want to experience.

Still, I'm unsure. I guess I would decide based on the pros/cons, my partner, financial stability, income, household and my present mental state.

But I don't really think I'll ever be able to raise a child. I have enough problems.

No kiddies for me. My philosophy on children is that they are a waste of time, energy, and money that I don't have. I don't even enjoy the company of little kids, and the fact that my older half-sister has four of them doesn't make them any more appealing to me.
#89
more no..then yes.
but i dont want to think about kids now..
#90
I cant have children.
#91
I voted "I can't have children", mainly because I'm poor and can barely support myself and my wife. If I ever won a lottery prize of millions of dollars then maybe I might adopt a child before having one of my own. But I never play the lottery anyway so...
#92
I did when I was younger, just like I wanted to get married. Thank God, I haven't done either one. As I grew older, I grew smarter. If I could have the child while its still a baby, fine, but when it got older and started getting a smart ass mouth, take it away.
Hell no, I would rather take an enema than have a kid.
#93
yeah,i want kids.and i am gonna teach them what noone ever teached me
#94
Definitely not.
#95
It depends on my future situation, I guess.
