I'm the same way around children. I love children, but I'm too scared around even them to play with them or anything. The strange thing is, I seem to attract them lol, especially the little ones (under 5). They leave their parents & run up to me when they see me in a store or just walking down the street. So, even though I'm scared of them lol, they still seem to like me.

It sounds ridiculous to be scared of children, doesn't it? I can just imagine what most people are thinking. lol, I'm always embarrassed for people to find out.

but I want now! I cant wait that long.. sorry :p
Yeesh, woman. Always so impatient. :rolleyes:

I used to feel scared that way, mostly because I had no idea how to play with kids or what you're supposed to do. The kids will pretty much show you though, and you get used to it after a while. They can really be quite delightful creatures. I just don't favor the responsibility of actually raising them and having them around full-time.
 
Depends on the kid. Some kids I'm very comfortable around. Some I am not. I used to coach some kids in maths and some others in chess around the community. I also once played with some toys with this adorable little kid and the parents (distant relatives) joined us. Therapeutic.

Then there's some kids that I would never go near. Went out to this trip with a friend to help organize activities for orphans. The orphans... sad to say, were very hard to handle. Fighting with each other, being very rebellious and just... well, I think they're scared to open up and are trying too hard at pretending to be tough guys. Same with another experience with some 'youths at risk'...

Really depends on the kids themselves. There are many kids whom most people will find to play with. And there's some who are really just very adorable.

Children make me nervous, my brother has two and I do not feel comfortable around them. They are loud and make nervous, make stupid disturbing comments making me angry. I wish I will never have kids because I will be a bad father.

I think if someone isn't around kids a lot, they don't know how to play or talk with them. I'm this way with kids, but I have no doubt my son will enjoy playing with me.
