Do you plan on marrying and have children? Why or why not?

Question

For the people that don't want too marry or have kids, have you ever thought of the idea of being the one to kill your family tree?

If you are already married and have kids, is it how you'd imagine it to be?

Personally I do plan on marrying, it's a decision I actually made at a younger age, that for me it's only right to find one woman and reproduce with her and keep the family tree going, I want to participate in my family tree, my family tree can go for centuries beyond me, I wouldn't want to be the one to cut that line for my own selfish reasons, as time goes by you left nothing, just forgotten over time until there no trace of the existence of you or anyone you are related too, imagine so far in time where you'll be related to someone so far in the future that they have a bit of every single culture on the planet and you were the puzzle piece for (whatever culture you are from) in their bloodline.

The correct question would be is is, why would anybody want any children. They're a pain in the ass, they ruin your adult life, they prevent couples from having good sex. You can't smoke weed or cigarettes in your house especially if you have an overprotected mother. And the last time I was in a grocery store listening to a father argue with his kids about them wanting something that they had plenty of at home, totally reminded me of what I used to put my parents through. So, why parents are having the same dumb stupid arguments with kids because they should remember and know what they put their parents through they should not want to subject themselves to kids. And also, if this was 1952 all over again and the only thing a kid wanted was a set of Lincoln logs for $12, and then maybe a choice submarine and a fire truck, then it might be advisable to have kids. But in this day and age were the average kid toy costs $1,000. And because they got to keep up with all the kids at school that have 10 toys that cost $1,000, now you got to buy the kid $10,000 worth of toys. So, and especially you cannot discipline kids in a responsible way nowadays which is why we have the entitlement going on in the younger generations now because they never got their ass beat like they deserved because their parents were too afraid on the kids calling DCFS or child protective services. So, when you can't raise your kids, because the government wants to win an interfere with your family in life, then there's no reason to have any. And especially in this economy? Who in the fuck wants kids? And marriage? That's pointless too when divorce is legal

I’ll probably get married, but kids…. one secret to a happy life, I’ve learned, is to saddle yourself with as few responsibilities to others as humanly possible. The worst things about living my life all have to do with what I have to do to satisfy someone other than myself, that’s what brings bad vibes into my life, other people’s demands and expectations of me. If it was just me, left to my own devices…life is incredible. What other people would positively bring into my life doesn’t usually outweigh the negative stuff that knowing them would bring in terms of doing stuff I don’t want to do or in a way I don’t want to do it. And doing things how I want is EVERYTHING to me…. yet something in me is a people-pleaser, so I let myself take a backseat a lot of the time. Kids would just be that concept on steroids.

At 22? No way. I was free and all over the place. I didn’t care if I wanted married or kids.
now I am married 2 times. And have 2 kids.
I tried to have one with my second husband… didn’t work….
I didn’t want his family tree to end… he is the youngest… now.. oh well…. at lease we tried.

I told my kids to continue our family legacy at a young age.. they got the point. My son is prepare lol…few weeks ago he asked me when is the younger he can have a kid… I said… as long as the girls family is okay.. I’m okay anytime after they turn 16 /17 😝 I will help.

I am getting married on April 27 but we won't he having children. Do you think I should?

brightpapaya · Answer

Marriage isn't a big deal at all in my culture so it's not really expected of me. However, if I do find the right partner and I want to make it official, then I could see myself going through with it. I don't see myself marrying more than once, though, even if my first marriage ends in divorce.

As for kids, I'm sure I don't want any biological ones because I know for certain that I don't want to be pregnant, but I'm open to dating people who already have kids. I don't really care about ending my bloodline because it carries shit genes anyway. :')

I don't PLAN on marrying. If I find the right person, the consequence of that is marriage, but marriage is not the goal in and of itself. If it were there have been a plethora of women I could have married so I can say "look I'm married" but that seems wrong-headed. I'm not having kids though. I decided that more than 30 years ago.

Very deep Chico! I have similar thoughts when thinking of why I want to be married and have kids. I want my family tree to grow as well and I think I've found the perfect partner for that. So now I can't wait to get married and start our family.

AviatorTom · Answer

I did marry... for 20 years... and we had 3 kids. Marriage overall was good, not easy, there are some tough times, and you work through them together. We ended it in an amicable divorce, and I'm still on good terms with my ex-wife.

systemsareyo · Answer

Unlikely in this lifetime (lol, maybe in future reincarnation (s) ) lol someday, yet realistically, no. Nope I don't want offspring, I don't need a wife, I find I have my family, friends and enough spending on me, myself and I. A woman seems like she'd just get in the way and be a pain to me like a nagger, a ball-breaker or rude personality, uh uh. I don't wanna end up like that guy married to such a woman in that first Hangover movie, lol Stu, lol 😂😆

I think at this point that window is all but closed. Kids are a big commitment. I've never met a woman worthy of committing my entire life to. And if that didn't even happen, kids naturally never even entered into the equation.

FunkyMonkee · Answer

That WOULD be nice but, it doesn't look like that's ever gonna happen.

No marriage in sight here. As for children I can't bare them.
