How many children do you see yourself having in the future?

[just_a_potato]

How many chubby little monsters do you want to ruin your life with? I can say that because I want them too.

1 kiddo only

2 children

3-4 children

5-6 children

7+ children

I don't want kids ever

I already have kids and am done having them (how many?)

[razelove]

I think it's likely that I'll have at least one more kid after this one and cross into the 5-6 territory. I can only see going into the 7+ numbers if I started having babies with another woman, as I think my wife is getting worn down at this point.

Having kids is a tolling experience I'm glad I don't have to go through. Honestly, if it was up to me, my fantasy, I'd have two wives, a farm, and at least ten little ones between my ladies. Call me strange or whatever, but I know what I want.

What's the number you have in your head potato?

[NamerOfStars]

None. I like kids (you don't become a school bus driver if you don't), but I know my genetics, and I know my psychological limitations, and how they'd keep me from being a decent parent. And in comparison with my brother and brother-in-law, I know I'm DEFINITELY both the cool uncle AND the creepy uncle, so hey, bonus points.

[hannahjo022]

To be honest probably none. Haven't found the right guy who I want to have children with and haven't found the right guy I can see myself having children with. I'm also scare of being pregnant and giving birth. I also have a genetic health disorder that I definitely don't want my children to have and pass it on to their children. Wish I could have the money to find a surrogate to carry my baby for me since I'm too scare being pregnant and giving birth.

[Apple1996]

Already have 2 and I'm pregnant with number 3. In total I want 5 or 6 depending on how old I am cause I'd like to stop having babies at 30.

[just_a_potato]

Damn ma'am you are a fertile hub 😂

[Apple1996]

Lol my mom had 7 so I must have inherited some good fertility genes from her 😂

[The_Maphio]

One is coming. Depending on how well I fare with them, I'll determine (together with her of course) whether to have one more or not. I can follow up with this formula for no more than 3 times though, for I need time to do my job and I need concentration. 4 brats rattling about in the house are too many to concentrate on anything but them.

[EmmaMary]

We already have one 16 mth. old little boy and will hopefully be trying for another baby in about a year or so time, that will then complete our family.

[Agape93]

You’re a great mom. You got this

[EmmaMary]

@Agape93 Bless you and thank you so much. x

[Agape93]

Anytime love. Good to hear from you :)

[EmmaMary]

@Agape93 Sincerely hoping you are now well and truly on the mend. x

[Agape93]

I’m better than I was at least. Happier to actually hear from you. It’s been over a month

[averageguy4]

Ideally I would want to have 3 to 4 of my own and then adopt 1. Kids are pretty great, and they give you an excuse to do those kid things you secretly want to do but don't because of social stigma. My kids are all going to extreme trampoline.

[Lyrem_]

Its so sad most people dont want kids if thats you why is that?

[just_a_potato]

People don't have to want kids, they have good reasons for it as well. If you are asking about me personally though I would like 4 kids.

[Lyrem_]

Cool! I’m just wondering why they don’t. Like what would the reasons be.

[just_a_potato]

Some don't like kids or the idea of that responsibility, others think it's bad for the environment or a selfish want... And some people probably can't have kids anymore or could never.

[Lyrem_]

Ah. Got ya. Technically if they can’t have kids doesn’t mean they don’t want them.

[just_a_potato]

Yeah I know, but it has been a couple of the responses I've gotten from this question so I felt it was fair to add it in

[ChiTown33]

H. I'm not married. I'm 45. I'm not against kids but I think having and raising kids is quickly reaching my rear view mirror.

[just_a_potato]

That was kinda... Depressing lol

[ChiTown33]

Is it any more depressing than a guy who's married with kids and regretting it?
I didn't ever meet that someone and have kids but I have nieces and nephews. I've done my share of babysitting. I don't regret my path. And that's all that matters :)

[just_a_potato]

Oh good as long as you don't regret it then it's not depressing anymore, hope you find your person though, if you want that 😊❤

[NoLookingAtSoleil]

Phew - at least one.
After that - as many as their mom (or moms if I don't find a loyal girl) want. I'd go up to 16, more if I/we could finance their upbringing.

[just_a_potato]

I was going to dislike until you said "if I/we could finance their upbringing" for a second i thought you were down with bringing a bunch of kids into the world without being financially stable. Scared the potato lol.

[NoLookingAtSoleil]

Lol. I aim to have at least one gradute Oxford, and would love all of them to (it isn't compulsory). Got to start with the first to get there though.

[CrotchRot]

I do not have, nor do I want, children. There are already too many people on this earth and I feel I'm doing my part to reduce the population.

[Still-alive]

uncertain at this point but if i do decide to get any it would likely be through adoption.

how many little spuds you you want miss potato? ;)

[just_a_potato]

Ahhh I see, I want 4 kids no more no less unless I decided to adopt more. All before 30 too 😌

[Still-alive]

i can see em all now in their little spud diapers awww

[just_a_potato]

You can be timmy spud's godfather too 😉

[Still-alive]

I will! ill feed him cheese every day and my nickname for him shall be "small fry" ;)

[just_a_potato]

HELL YEAH

[Still-alive]

i'll feed him his favorite meal everyday too... ketchup. he seems to like it all over himself though. messy kids lol

[just_a_potato]

Kids are quite messy, gotta love them lol

[Account]

My own? None.

I wouldn't be opposed into adopting one though.

[fallen_wings]

Before, I wanted to have three kids. But, with everything that's happening in the world (climate change, pandemic, less sources) I don't want any

[keniyaa]

I love kids but I ain't gone have a lot of them to is manageable that is all I can handle I ain't gone push all them head out lol

[ChrisMaster69]

I already have a daughter, more would greatly depend on any future partners wishes.

[Drooogie4]

Zero. Non negotiable. If I ever get pregnant, I'll be unpregnant asap.

[Alyssa11]

Three - if I have four I will slap my husband for causing it lol.

[ImSparkly]

Becoming a stepmom made my mother-clock kick in. So yes, hoping to start for two more this fall.

[blank_expression]

Given the recent overthrow of our government and the globalists stoking up the furnaces for our extermination, zero is the safe bet.

[just_a_potato]

Uhhhhhhh what? 😃

[NathanDavis]

if I were to have children, I would prefer two... one of each.

[Slartybartfast]

Wanted them , gave up looking for a woman when I turned 30.

[beebella]

I've always liked the idea of having somewhat of a big family, but as I'm getting older, I'm thinking 2 kids might be enough for me.

[exitseven]

I just got the third on through college. I am done.
