Do you think you'd make a good parent?

[MementoMori777]

People that are parents already, is It hard? Lol

I think I'd make a good parent, id have a mini me running around the world, this world wouldn't be able to handle it but ey you know what they say, if the world can't handle one of ya, then multiply 😌

Follow up question, are you gonna raise your child to be like you or different?

[AaronKrieger]

In a lot of ways, definitely, but I fear I'd be abusive at times. I've had serious anger issues in the past and sometimes I "relapse" for a moment. It's gotten better with time as I mature, but I am quite not ready yet to have kids, so I am not in any rush 😂

[MementoMori777]

I guess it depends if that's physical or verbal abuse, with verbal you might just raise them to be very thick skinned if you teach them the ways, physical you might just raise serial killers

[AaronKrieger]

By abuse, I mean mainly physical, which is why I'd rather not raise kids right now until I've matured more.

Also, I'd say most serial killers who dealt with abuse were verbally abused more than anything, lmao. Actually, I think an abusive mother is probably the most common thing amongst them. Look at people like Ed Kemper and Ed Gein.

[MementoMori777]

Then maybe it's not a such a good idea lol

[ChooChooHaha]

On both levels. Abuse is abuse, regardless of how you dish it out. You don't just mess them up physically, you warp their minds. You can raise a lot of messed up people with emotional abuse. You don't even have to go that far: look up brown eyes, blue eyes with school children (they were like 10 years old, at the oldest). The consequences are hair raising.

[AaronKrieger]

@ChooChooHaha Abuse is abuse, but I'm going to rank verbal above physical, although tend both to go hand-in-hand. Hardly ever is a parent that's physically abusive not verbal as well.

[ChooChooHaha]

Exactly, yeah.

[ChooChooHaha]

But my point was: you gotta be careful, cause you can fuck with the brain just as bad.

[AaronKrieger]

@ChooChooHaha That's true.

[ChooChooHaha]

And you don't even have to go that far. Like I said, see brown eyes, blue eyes kids.

[ChooChooHaha]

I'm no mother. Biologically, for myself, my choice. No.

That being said: one of my friends entrusts me, I'm made to be a guardian, I end up a stepmom, something, circumstances say otherwise, I will do so. Without question, without hesitation. I will put them first everytime. They will be close enough to where you'd think we're blood related.

[MementoMori777]

Why have you decided not to have children if I way ask Ms Choo Choo

[MementoMori777]

🤔🤔🤔

[ChooChooHaha]

Sure! No one ever does, so I'm a little taken aback. hehe.

My natural hormonal imbalance now when I get my period renders me suicidal. Add in problemsfrom vaccines, it's messed up by body chemistry. Pregnancy is not a good idea.

Would I even WANT to take care of my kid, spend time with them? Even now? I hear from biological parents they "HAVE TO" or "SUPPOSED TO" with/for/ by their kids. Do they even WANT TO in the first place? Most of the time, not what I hear. So I won't do that to my children. That sounds like a recipe for disaster and harboring resentment, which is NOT GOOD in most respects, especially mentally/emotionally.

Plus, I'm unable to take care of them in EVERY WAY. To have a child, you can't just blink and whatnot. You have to take it VERY VERY SERIOUSLY. You have to be able to provide for them, mentally, emotionally, monetarily, physically. On that ALONE: no.

Plus, to bring a child into this world? Also no. The globohomos are waging war against the people of the world. Inflation, housing costs. No. Not in a world like this. Wars fuck up adults HORRIBLY, alone. Plus, the allowance of the corruption of people, let alone kids on a BASIC level, is NOT HAPPENING.

[MementoMori777]

Those are some interesting reasonings Ms Choo Choo, very understandable indeed 🙂

[ChooChooHaha]

Yeah? Thanks! Thank you!

[ChooChooHaha]

I'd raise them to be themselves, within reason.

[MementoMori777]

Nice 🤣👍

[ChooChooHaha]

lol, why's that funny?

[MementoMori777]

It's not suppose to be a laugh 🙃

[ChooChooHaha]

lol, oh ok.

[Ezra_lila]

Maybe, I have a great parents and I wanted to be like them too. Loving, caring, selfless, but strict sometimes. My father always is the pessimistics one while on the otherhand my mother is the positive one so they're a good combination.

One is realistics and so do I.

If I will be a parent maybe I will.

[exitseven]

My kids all turned out pretty good. They are all college graduates and are living on their own. I imagine my wife had a lot more to do with it that I did but my kids saw how hard I worked and how I took care of my parents and other elderly relatives.

[MementoMori777]

Both parents play a part in a child's life, their success in life is because of both of y'all, children need a father and mother figure, it's just how life was naturally suppose to be, cool results bro 👍💯

[exitseven]

Thanks for the MHO

[Massageman]

Parenting if the hardest job for which there really is no advance, on-the-job training. I think I did. We had two great daughters, both are college educated, married, with three kids each. Do we agree with everything that they do? No, not on the "molecular level", and I';d be a fool to think they agree with everything that I do at that level. But what they do, they do from a sound grounding in fairness, Christian doctrine, and with the Love of God. I can live with that.

[MementoMori777]

Sounds like you are a good parent bro, interesting info 🤔💯

[4ngelic]

if i had kids rn to be honest got no idea but dont think i'd be parent of the year or anything

[MementoMori777]

What about parent of the week 🤣

[midnightmoon05]

I hope so…but how would we know?
I am raising two teens now even being divorced. I insisted my ex to be a part of the kids life. That we talk often to discuss their situations. So far it’s been working well. In addition, I am also “teaching” their step dad how to raise kids from his perspective so he gets the respect from the kids.

[Dnice1]

I think I would, I know my parents raised me and my brother well and with me working with kids it kinda helps me to know what to expect if I ever have any

[MementoMori777]

Well repunzel you definitely seem like you'd make a good mother, I didn't know you worked with kids so that just confirms my statement now doesn't it lol

[Dnice1]

Yeah I worked with children for awhile, like in high school I T. A. with a few preschool teachers, I had a job working as a child care teacher for a little over a year and now at my new job at my old high school I work as a preschool teacher assistant and in afternoon school care so I've had a bit of experience mento 😊

[MementoMori777]

Wow you went back to school, that's crazy, has it changed? Cause you must be getting them nostalgic moments lol

That's cool repunzel, the job sounds very fitting for your personality, I hope those kids aren't too hard on you, high school can be toxic 🤣

[Dnice1]

Lol well I work with preschoolers rather than high schoolers. It is good to back there again, two of the teachers I used to work with are still there and I've seen some of my old high school teachers which has been nice. It's great to be back working there and yes it has changed. Everything has been a major upgrade compared to my last job, even the kids are way better behaved 😊

[MementoMori777]

Really, looks like that school has made a come up lol

But I'm glad you've found a job you enjoy, it seems like you really find passion in this career Repunzel and I hope you thrive and are loved by your students and I hope you climb up the ladder to become principle one day 😁

[Sasha0426]

No, I would not. I wouldn’t have the patience and I couldn’t handle raising a child and being responsible for their well being.

[MementoMori777]

Fair enough lol

[Starrrboy]

Yeah I think so... based on other people's kids, they really love me and they see me as a cool father figure I seem to bring out the best of them... maybe because I have so much dad energy considering I grew up with no dad, I see fatherhood as a huge responsibility.. and when I take care of someone it's like I'm somehow also patching up my dysfunctional childhood haha..

[Twalli]

I could probably raise children all right, but I don't think I could if they were too much like me.

[MementoMori777]

Lmao I felt that, good thing you can kinda mold them into something and try to mold them into the good parts of you ha

[Twalli]

I just know what I'll likely pass down, and I know how difficult it was for me to grow up like that. I was lucky that I had the parents I did, I can't say that I can do as good of a job as my parents. Especially since my go-to response to stress is to be alone. For a kid that needs to know they have support when necessary, that is not good. Any kid like me needs to know that because I needed to know that.

[MementoMori777]

If you think you got the dos and donts down right then that's good, that should help raise a child

[Twalli]

I know what to do and what not to do. Yet I know what would have helped me more, and I don't think I can provide that. And that's beyond what my parents provided, which included massive wealth, which I probably will never have.
If you remember Occupy Wall Street with the slogan "We are the 99%". I was of the 1% richest Americans (at least my parents were and I was a minor, so by association I was).

[MementoMori777]

Sounds like you have the potential to be a good father

[sheikalana]

I believe so. But I also believe it must be incredbly hard.

[BLP11520]

I am a good parent

[MementoMori777]

Glad to hear that bro

[Miah05]

I think so.
