Are you for or against having kids?

Question

What are your reasons?

jasco · Accepted Answer

Against at the moment. I don't see my self being with any of the women on social media and in real life. Not because I don't find myself phyiscally attractive or anything but because honestly, why bother trying. I am happy with just going on dates, having fun, being single. I have tried being in relationships and its just not working out for me. Some are my fault, other relationships ended on her. So at the moment I don't want to be with someone or have kids anymore. Maybe my mindset will change when I am older but now I am just tired. I am trying to better myself mentality and physically. Gonna stop going after certain types of women and try revaluating what I think a good wife for me would be. Not because the ones I go after are bad but they just don't seem to be in the mindset that would suit me and vise versa.

I am for me having, but that's because I can provide a stable environment and have the means to have kids. Teen pregnancy and pot smoking, drug addicts and crazy physically violent people shouldn't be allowed to in my opinion.

I think we want less dumb people reproducing because a lot of jobs require a lot of education and skills a child can't focus if they're being abused or neglected by their parents. Their parents are teenagers and can't afford tutoring or a decent education. I think only middle class, working class and rich people should have kids.

Completely against it!!!
Love being child free and doing what I want, when I want, with no rugrats draining me of money-

... the government, bill collectors, and grocery stories are already doing a good job of taking all my hard earned money without adding a kid to the equation. I honestly have the utmost respect for you parents that can do it.

That and to be blunt, I have NO maternal instinct, or urge to have kids. I've felt that way since I was a kid!!!
Working in healthcare and hearing screaming kids regularly acts like a birth control for me, lol

I'm for having kids and really really hope go have at least 2 maybe 3 kids. I always wanted to be a mom, and when Christmas and birthdays come it's going to be so much fun. So the day I find out that I'm expecting, it's going to be the happiest day of my life. Plus I can't wait to someday go toy shopping with them, watch cartoons, play with them, take them to the park, read them stories, take care of them.

Mia-Wallace · Answer

For having kids. But I only preach that to my family. Why preach? Because I like who we are and what we built and don't like us to go extinct.

Other people can decide for themselves whether they are valuable enough to survive in this world or not.

I've dealt with some health problems since I was a little kid and I lost many loved ones in the first two decades of my life. All of that showed me the importance and value of having kids, not the other way around.

Sour-rose · Answer

Against. Don't need to have my remaining sanity broken into microscopic pieces because this kid won't stfu because I said I ain't buyin' no damn candy. And then I probably force my way of thinking of life on them aaand well I think that's what my mom does subtly and look how I am... sour af and tired of where I am.

Static_In_The_Attic · Answer

To be honest I rather buy a goldfish instead & when you have kids the whole ball game changes & you can kiss a lot of things goodbye including your freedom. As for me I don’t have any kids that I know of & to be honest again I don’t think I want them. As for me I’m single & accepting applications & although I am going out on dates if I meet a wonderful lady who happens to have a child I would welcome that child into my life all the way.

EmmaMary · Answer

Both my husband and I are definitely all for having children, that is why we already have a two and a half year old little boy and I'm currently seven months pregnant with our second child.

janaina · Answer

I just feel like everyone has the right to live their life the way they want to. I don't have any opinion on it, but I do really despise people who have children that they never wanted and then abuse them...

SushiSxnpai · Answer

A lot of people can’t be trusted with kids. There are also a lot of kids waiting for adoption, so rather than having kids, more people should adopt those without families.

CubsterShura · Answer

Neither lol I'm for people being able to choose for themselves. Personally I do want to have children as well as adopt.

Lionman95 · Answer

I´m for it because it can strengthen and bring joy to a married couple. But I probably won´t have kids myself due to medical reasons.

maximumpower · Answer

Just bc someone can have them doesn't mean they should.
If they can't support or otherwise take care of them, then they shouldn't have them.
Likewise if they are guaranteed to have issues, they shouldn't have them then, either.

HippieVeganJewslim · Answer

Against. I support adoption, as there are too many parentless kids out there. Furthermore, if the world would not convert to fruitarianism, the carrying capacity would be 10 billion, and I think that now the population is too close to that number.

exitseven · Answer

I had 3 of them so I guess I am for having kids. We need more intelligent, responsible people.

Stoner710 · Answer

I think it’s why sex exists in the first place so for having kids. The purpose of sex is procreation sex with worthless other wise

hostboy__fastestlaps · Answer

I'm for the idea, but I think future parents should get drug-tested before having kids. Modern parents are less physical, but more emotionally abusive and narcissistic.

Agape93 · Answer

100% against it. Never wanted them and thankfully no longer can

Fuentes · Answer

Not a fan of kids or more kids on my end. I can tolerate and out up with kids but I don't like kids. I just love my only child at least I can explain to one child how weird this world has gotten and don't follow the weirdo communist.

Avicenna · Answer

Sure, I'd like to have some more (of my own biological kids)

FilmGuy93 · Answer

I like the idea, but I don't want to raise my kids around the insanity of western culture.

ZS007 · Answer

at the moment I'm against. They are expensive, the world is shitty, I can get cats

Drumlin2001 · Answer

Having had 2, I don't plan on having any more. OH doesn't want another pregnancy and we're both getting older. We're happy at 2

Anonymous · Answer

Two teenagers. Largely for.

However, they are too big for the play pen, argumentative, and expensive.

But I've rarely been bored, the steady progression has been pleasing, and they'll help pay for my pension in a few years.

Cubus · Answer

For. We need to reproduce in order to develop. If we don't reproduce it will result in economical disaster, which is already seen in Japan, and will soon happen in Europe.

clampfan101 · Answer

I can’t explain why, but I really want to be a father one day. However I’m concerned about how messed up the world is compared to when I was growing up. I’d probably have to home school them.

Trilinium · Answer

I want to be financially secure with a good house and partner where the relationship is steel. Don't want mine to grow up poor with divorced parents like I had to

Deathraider · Answer

Against. You’re bringing into existence someone that might not necessarily want it and you could do serious harm if you’re a shitty parent.

itsmegrave · Answer

I am not sure about children yet. We have to see how we feel after our first year together.

Anonymous · Answer

I personally don't want to have kids for one they have always scared me. I don't think I would ever be a good parent. Also well tbh the world is both over populated and a shit place seems unfair to being a kid into it.

Anonymous · Answer

Jamie05rhs · Answer

Completely neutral. (But if I do, I don't want to have a lot.)
