Did you once not want children but later changed your mind?


When I was younger I always said when I have children I will never do this I was younger I used to get beat with a belt and I mean deep cuz I always told myself if I ever have a child I will never put my hands on that child I will never yell and scream at that child.
And then one day after marriage my ex told me we were going to have a baby. Now I was scared how am I going to raise this child how am I going to teach this child once I held that baby in my arms the rest was very easy because I knew how it was going to love that child
As I held my son in my arms I knew at that moment I was meant to have children in that moment I told myself I was going to have to be two different people I was going to have to be the teacher and the father.
Each day brought new things I had to think before I did.
I had to think before I spoke. I had to become the child very quick to learn how to be the adult to learn how to be the parent
And in that moment I learned a child here's all sees all it will become all that sees and hears and Witnesses and if the parent of the child is a God and every child wants to do the right thing did you not want to let the parents down
And from that day to this day I never touched I never spoke a harsh word I've never yelled at my child the most beautiful thing I've ever done in my life was to have a child
Today the way the world is I don't think I would want one I know I wouldn't want one because I don't know where we're headed. Well I take that back it's because I do know where we're headed is that a good place and I would not want to bring a child up in this world to live through to go through everything we are all about to go through I think today it would be selfish to have a child in many ways I would adopt a child today but I would not have a biological
At least the child it would have been adopted as a head start
For me personally I have to be in my child's life 24 hours a day until 18 if something was to happen in our country we went through heartache which I believe is going to I would have to be able to protect my child and I would do it to the best of my ability but if I didn't have a I don't have to worry about it and I could focus on getting the world back to a better place
When I was growing up I vowed never to be a father, as various things really put me of the idea of children.
this lasted pretty much until I was married, then we decided to try for a baby.
my world changed then.
I then had a daughter.
I am still not 100% on a family, however I do have an amazing daughter,
@luminair3 thank you
And she now lives with me.
@luminair3 I need it lol, trust me I need it
@iBeowulf go and really fuck your self you incredible cunt
@iBeowulf no that’s cockwomble, hopefully someone you love other than yourself will have a really bad accident.
Here’s hoping eh,
@luminair3 thank you most appreciated
Not really. I got to touch a baby for the first time when I was 10. My aunt let me cuddle her baby and play with him. I even changed his diapers sometimes (a real priviledge lmao) and I didn't find it as gross as his mother did. He often fell asleep in my arms and it was so soothing to me I took a nap with him on the couch. I'd be with him 24/7 and would grow him up on my own if they let me.
After that, having a baby turned into a kind of dream for me.
I flip back and forth honestly. Some days I'd love to be a mom! Other days I'm not sure I'll ever be ready. And I'm not exactly a fan of raising a child in the current condition of the world.
But tomorrow, I'll want kids, so I have no idea what I really want.

When I was a little boy, I definitely wanted to have children. When I was a teenager, I still wanted children. But when I became an adult, I became wiser and I realized how much of a hassle having kids would actually be. Ironically, around age 22 I started getting baby fever. Meaning I began to think that babies were actually cute and not disgusting. However, that still isn't enough for me to want to actually have a baby. I still don't like babies that much. But I do like kids, though. They're pretty cool. As long as they're potty-trained.
Right now, as far as me having a kid personally, I'm officially neutral on the matter. I could honestly live without them; but if my wife wants to have a kid, I guess we can have a kid.
Yes. It happens to most of us. Love and family, marriage and commitment, isn't about what you GET, it's about GIVING. So when you reach a level of maturity and life satisfaction, many get to a place where they're ready to share their life with someone special.
Some just never get there, and that's fine too, they should not marry or have children. And if you ARE going to start a family, do the right thing and marry, setup a solid family structure for the children to grow up in. It makes for a much nicer society, and much more well adjusted children which then become adults themselves.
If you never have children, you have no one when you get old. Or put another way, family is all you've really got.
@Browneye57 You don't need no marriage to squeeze out some welfare puppies, you just need a few babby daddies, section 8 housing, welfare, WIC, SSI, and you can party like a rock star!
@KrakenAttackin - Or you can let the femi-nazis tell you that you can be both a mother AND a father and raise your crotch-fruit on your own. "We don't need no stinkin' men!"
@Browneye57. That's right. The welfare system will pay a women for all of her illegitimate children EXCEPT if there is a man living in the house. We can blame Lyndon Johnson for destroying black families with this one mandate.
I didn't want children in my early 20s. Later some of my friends had kids and I got the chance to keep them on my lap, talk with them and sometimes I even played with them. Then I felt like I might consider having children, but still I wasn't completely sure. And now, I'm sure that I want children.
I’d never really thought about it, and never thought I’d get a boyfriend let alone have kids. I can’t say I actively wanted them.
However I found myself pregnant while religiously taking the pill at the same time each day. I went with it, had a son.
9 years later we had a girl, planned. Didn’t want an only child.
I’m not one to go on about my kids or motherhood, but I don’t regret anything, wouldn’t be without them, and would do anything for them.
I went from 'sort of assumed I'd have them' to 'not sure i'd have them' to 'lets have them' to 'they're the most important thing in my world'.
I've always wanted a big family and I'm pregnant with my 3rd right now so definitely on my way to that dream of having a big family.
When I was young, I had a dream that I had a son and he had heart defect. I didn't even pray about it. I just made up my mind that I won't have kids.
Along the line, I became powerful enough to send that Devil packing and when I became powerful, I gained the luxury of dreaming of kids again.
There was a time I said only a daughter but now I want them all and lots of them.
I used to think I might want them but am now firm about not having them due to the ethics and morals surrounding it.
I didn't want kids of my own and want sure I even wanted to get married. Well, I met my husband got married and got pregnant the first time we didn't prevent. Then we kept making babies! I only wish I had more.
I always wanted children, just not with my 2nd psycho wife.
I almost got snipped because I couldn't bare the thought of having kids with her
Yikes! Did you have children later?
@TrueConfection
Thank God, yes.
Two blessings that challenge us every day and at the end everything is worth it.
Oh good! Congratulations! ❤
@TrueConfection
@exitseven
Thank you both, seriously.
I've never wanted children but I have more child care hours than most parents as I have four younger siblings that I've bathed, fed and changed, and two nephews and nieces that I've done the same for but with the nephews and nieces I could always hand them back!
No, I never changed my mind or my thinking. I have always been single and have decided to remain single for life. Never wanted kids also.
However, that being said I love watching videos and images of cute babies but that is it. Only watching and nothing more, this is so that I can de-stress myself after each day's hard work at office.
I always wanted to be a mother which is fortunate as it turns out lol
A BIG NO since I was a kid.
When i was a teen then also I wished to never see that day... in between I got confused... but then finally as an adult it's A BIG NO!
Society tries to change you and your lifestyle. Many people get brainwashed but I'm glad that i'm back to my original self.
I always say that if i have kids i think i will go the adoption route. a lot of them are skipped over often
I didn't not want children. If it never happened I thought it would not be a big deal for me. After having the three of them I am really glad I did.
I’m not surprised by the results. From what I’ve seen both online and in real life, women tend to be more open to the idea of having kids than guys.
As for me, I’m still young but I remember disliking kids when I was in my early teens. It all changed when my cousin was born. I watched her grow from a baby to a lovely young girl and spent a lot of time babysitting her. It made me realise kids aren’t so bad and made me want to have kids too one day.
Yes, I prayed that I wouldn't have children for the first half of my life because it scares me way too much to love someone that much. Then I prayed not to have children until I was at least 25 because I wanted to at the very least have a stable home/life
Still don't really want kids. I figure if I do, there are plenty who are looking for a home. I should look for them before those that share my DNA.
Guys, women file 80% of divorces and get custody and alimony in 90% of cases... her kids... his money.
I've never asked myself if I wanted kids. It's always been a desicion I would make when I've finished my education, have found a good job, and have a more stable permanent partner.
no I always wanted children. I just don't want a mother for my child.
I kind of remember at the early stage of my teenage I didn't want kids. Around 16/17 I was like "I might or I might not", didn't think too much about that topic. Somehow now, I want to have kids one day.
There are so many things that could go wrong; What if they are severely disabled? What if my child becomes mentally or terminally ill? What if they don't like me? What if my partner dies and I'm left as a single parent? What would happen to my child in the event both parents die?
After overthinking I'm 99% sure I will never having kids.
I had pretty severe anxiety and depression so i didn't want to bring kids into a world i hated. But then i went and had a kid. Felt like crap for it. But eventually not wanting to miss them griw up kept me alive. They saved my life.
I have always wanted to be a mother. My entire life. I love my kids so much.
Nope. I've always wanted children. The last few years my baby fever has been really, really bad.
I've always wanted kids, which is good because I started young l
Yup thats how i used to say but now i have 2 sweeeeet little angels
I did change my mind, but it was only with the one girl that I had hoped to marry. I proposed to her twice and was turned down both times. No kids for me.
I probably will change my mind. A 40% chance...
But I don't want to have children. I wouldn't mind having children around me but to have them as my own naaahh
When you're a teenager you don't really know what you want, don't do anything foolish, like have a tubal ligation, which can't be reversed. Most women in a stable relationship end up wanting kids.
Sometimes i also feel i won't have children when i get married when i see annoyed parents in public but my mind does change and i think i will have some day
Mine's the other way. I wanted to have kids when I was younger but after I have seen how kids these days are behaving... No thanks...
And please don't tell me having kids will make my life complete... It won't...
I do not mind if someone I Am with has one, but I Do not want any of my own
Speaking personally, I would rather jump in front of a semi than get caught having to deal with babies and kids. I HAVE NO USE FOR ANY OF THEM!!!
Yep. Had her get an abortion. Might not have been mine. Still one of my biggest regrets in life. So glad I’m out of school and not a brainwashed liberal anymore.
Anyone who thinks about having kids needs to ask themselves if they would be a good parent.
Quite the opposite. When i was younger i looked forward to having kids, even thought about names... now, i would rather have a peaceful quiet life, instead of one full of stress and yelling with screaming children
It actually the opposite for me, I used to want children of my own but unfortunately that dream had died.
It is up and down for me.
At some pints in life I want them and at some point no.
I'm the opposite lol. I wanted kids in my 20s but now I don't. Many reasons why.
The main reason I don’t want kids is because I know I’m gonna have to be the person I want them to be
it’s programmed in you to want kids. I do not want kids. And I don’t think that’ll change.
In past I did want to have child but I definitely don't/won't want to have one
When I was younger I always dreamed about having children but now i realise how hard it would be to have any.
Never wanted them but accidentally had one and still wish I’d never had him
@KrakenAttackin I’ve never claimed to be. I know I’m in the minority but I can’t help the way I feel. I’d always hear parents say how they can’t imagine life without their kids and I never understood that because I could imagine it and it was a very nice life. At least I have the guts to admit it. I’ve been to therapy a long time over it and I’m not unique and am ok with how I feel. I used to feel guilty about it but not anymore
@KrakenAttackin no. No personality disorders I’m just a loner by choice. I want it known though I did try to be a father and I did pay all of my court ordered child support
I've always wanted kids one day.
I have always wanted children.
For me giving birth is worse than murder tbh
Lol the blood bath is what you mean?
true.
You are literally describing 90% of modern women.
Haven’t changed me mind yet
nope - always did
I will never want children. I hate children
Nah opposite I did but now I dont
I want children but I don't
Always wanted kids
Reverse that
yea i did
