Do you want Kids?
 
Well, do you want to have Children at some stage in your life?
I don't. Tell me what you think...

Alcar 02-17-2003 07:13 AM

As posted bye me earlier:

:

I can wait to have a family, if at all. I don't really know if I want a family.

One thing I dislike about a family is that the mother is always the most loved. Which I can understand, as we all do come from our mothers, and so we all share a deeper connection with them. But, the father will always be second best. I guess that's why fathers tend to have to make it up in other ways, which I ain't wanting to do.

And, thats ages away anyway. The only thing I have preset in my mind is too get the job I want. And what ever unfolds after that is up to the future.

Kids?
 
Hell no !
I hate babies and small ,bratty,noisy kids...
Why I hate babies?
Well, they emit repulsive things, they're loud, they stink and they're nothing but a pain in the ass!
And besides, the thought of carrying a "foreign" creature , a parasite, a BABY, in my systems for nine months doesn't sound so tempting to me...

...brrrr... Scary!
*shudders*

Jacob 02-17-2003 05:54 PM

I do, i was talking about this today. I want them just so i can be the amazingest father ever...and have the evilest, richest kids on the block...bwaha!!

Oh no, Not mini Jacobs. Running around in small Gucci clothes. And what would happen if they made friends with the Townie scum? You'd die of embarrassment.

So do I! My Auntie made me hold my cousin when he was a baby. I still bare the scars today...

Too true, I have nightmares every day. I'm scared to sleep at night.:fuzwink:

Before you even consider having Babies check out a resteraunt. God save us when the Babies arrive. They lob food at Dad and Scream at Mom. It is very off-putting indeed.

Basically Babies are Eeevil!
The only good thing about babies is that they keep the population going.
There are much better reasons not to have them than to have them...

MojoMan220 02-17-2003 07:54 PM

I. Hate. Children. PERIOD.

Joshy 02-18-2003 03:30 AM

I'll have children when i'm succesful and rich. By rich i mean i'm a millionaire.

Good for you! Join the Rebellion and we shall ban children!


:

1. I'll have children when i'm succesful and rich. 2. By rich i mean i'm a millionaire.
1. Anyone who openly wants children will never be succesful and rich.

2. So you are planning to spoil your evil Offspring then. If there's one thing I hate more than Children it's Spoiled Children!

FireFrog 02-18-2003 08:37 AM

Of course I wanna' have children. I dont know why anyone wouldnt want em...

u guys are wierd... I meen, you were children once too ya know.

Majic 02-18-2003 11:43 AM

Children CAN be annoying, but I'd like one kid. Only one...

paramiteabe 02-18-2003 11:57 AM

I would like to have a family. 2 boys and my wife. Yep thats the family for me a family of 4.

Paramiteabe...:fuzblink:

Jacob 02-18-2003 12:07 PM

I want at least 2 girls so i can shop with them and shtuff...

If they did make friends with Townie scum i would beat them...heh. And if they turned into Townie scum i would burn them...ALIVE!!

Rich 02-18-2003 02:51 PM

I can understand that but the thought of a crying, screaming, below 3 years of age, primitive, scary thing kind of puts me off.

I can just see them pooping and throwing up on your latest Gucci Coat...

Chris: Hello Darlings how are you. Come give Daddy a hug.
Baby: (Throws up on Chris) Waaaaa!
Chris: Aaaarggghhh! This stain will never come out! I'll kill you, you little B*stard!

It really would be quite entertaining...

Jacob 02-18-2003 05:04 PM

One of my friends drew a picture of me and my two daughters when i have them, t'was quite ace...heheheh...

Well, that was irrelevant...

MojoMan220 02-18-2003 05:42 PM

The reason I don't want kids is because its a life time commitment. It might be cool to have a baby to raise, but then they grow up to be teenagers. I don't know why, but even getting married is depressing to me. I don't think I could limit my life to family. I want to do what I want when I want without having to ask my wife or confronting my children. When you get married and have children you lose a great deal of freedom. I think I'll stick with dating, thank you very much.

Rich 02-18-2003 06:29 PM

I agree totally with Mojo. Raising a baby seems hellish to me. Plus the entire Santa, tooth fairy, Easter Bunny thing must be hard for Parents to deal with.
It may just be me though.
I also hate the idea of Marriage. I'm not a huge fan of big commitments. I'd prefer to go to someone elses wedding than my own...

MunchOnThis 02-18-2003 08:46 PM

Pfffffft

I hate small children, they always order you to play dolls/toys with them and always tell on you for no reason.


:

Agreed. I just cannot stand small children ><

Rich 02-19-2003 07:35 AM

Damn!
 
Come on guys! The children wanting retards are winning my precious debate!

Children are scary!

1. They make you play with barbies/ action men.

2. They are sick on Jacob.

3. They believe in Santa.

4. They cry for no reason.

5. They grow a bit older then they listen to pop music. *shudder*

6. When they become teens they hate you.

7. They don't get you Birthday presents.

8. When you require them to look after you in old age they don't. Or...

9. They send you to the wrong care home.

10. You never like their Girlfriend / Boyfriend.

Big_Bro_Slig222 02-19-2003 12:34 PM

I dont really want kids. My sisters kid has given me some ideas about them, and although shes really good, I dread the day she starts talking....

(1) - I dont believe they put a gun to your head and say;
"Play with the Barbie/Action man!!"
And thus dont MAKE you do anything...

(2) - But im rich, i can buy other Gucci garments...

(3) - Some people believe in God...same difference.

(4) - Apart from when they have reasons...

(5) - Not if you get them into non-pop-music shtuff...

(6) - Not if your rich and funky...

(7) - They do if you threaten to throw them out...

(8) - They do if they want your money...

(9) - They dont if they're not imbeciles and want to be included in the will...

(10) - They can be disposed of...

The only bad thing i can think of is if they're born with;
*Ginger hair (no offense to anyone)
*They're geeks
*They're have some kind of mental disability or physical one (i'm talking severe disability)
*They dont want to be rich...and they're commies...

In that case we can only hope that on your first try you have octoplets. All Males.
They all have ginger hair. Three of them are severely disabled. The rest are addicted to the internet and have no friends. Strangely they all have a desire for Didora tracksuits and Biker mice from mars merchandise.
They listen to techno and dance music or rock music which is cool. (but bad for you as it leads to their unpopularity due to Townie and Trendie retards) or indeed Garage or Hiphop.
This would lead to breakdancing which would undoubtedly ruin the Gucci clothes you bought to replace their Diadora.
If that happened you would either shoot yourself and them, or learn from your mistakes and join us!

Hmm...let me see.I might enjoy having kids if they don't end up being spoilt, petulant little brats that can't stand up from themselves, get betean up, end up being a geek and being a real wimps.
But spoilt children really seriously piss me off. You just want to thump them and scream at the parents, "What the hell were you thinking?"

Silversnow 02-19-2003 10:00 PM

I'd LOVE to have lots and lots of children! At least 3. Kids are wonderful. But my view on that could change in the years, I doubt I'd get any now. And then it's the mans decision too.

First it's pregnacy time. No periods, the feeling of the baby kicking... then comes the pain and the screaming and the blood and the "Breath! Breath! Push, push! I can see it's head!" and the father throwing up... But all good things have some bad thing coming.
Then it's the baby part. Feeding it, changing diapers, hearing it trying to talk to you, play with it and stuff. It wants you to play with it and care about it, yeah, but I'm sure those things can be easily taken care of. I'm sure that I'll just find my kids (if I'll get any, I don't know) more interesting when they become teenagers(but I think they won't find me any interesting by then).

So, there all members in the anti-children club. I know kids are problems too, but what isn't nowadays. I'm done now and ready to recieve all the silly comments.

That would be all up to you, the parent and how you raise them.

I can't believe you people don't want kids. I know many children that aren't bratty and they are a a lot of fun to be around.
You need to think about things for a minute or two. You sound like these 'geeks' that you say you wouldn't have your children being. I think being afraid of life is very geeky.

Alcar 02-20-2003 06:54 AM

I'm not afraid of life. I love living it, unfortunately I'm a very adventerous person but I have no one to be adventerous with. My friends *cough* happyguy936 and oddpod are some on the forums */cough* aren't really all that outgoing, and they know it!

And me, I'm not much of someone to take the initiative to do things outgoing by myself. I always enjoy company. Some one, save me!

But, back on track. I like children, they can be annoying. But my reason was the reason I posted earlier.

Alcar...

Rich 02-20-2003 07:32 AM

Undoubtedly if I ended up having a kid through pure accident and we didn't have the baby terminated (Abortion is Homicide even if the Kids are little brats) I would grow to love him or her or whatever it is.
I am just saying that I would never have kids on purpose at this point in time.

:

Obviously there are exceptions but I don't know many kids. The kids I do know are quite vile. My cousins in particular, thank God I came to my senses and refused to visit my Aunt anymore.

:

I've thought this over for several years. Before, a couple of years ago I wanted children. Now by studying myself and my cousins and other kids I can't believe what I was thinking.

:

In my opinion kids stop you from living freely for about fourteen years.

Also all kid wanters, are you under pressure because your Parents want Grandchildren?

Thought so, well tell them to F*ck off then. Unless that is you want them...

Gorgoroth_II 02-21-2003 05:22 PM

I'm new to the board, and i know this may land me on the wrong side of a few of you, or maybe a lot of you, but i'm going to quote Bill Hicks in saying:

"Quit thinking you're gonna f***ing make the world better by bringing more little f***ing cabbages to the planet. Why don't you try loving the people that're already f***ing here, instead of living for a future that never f***ing comes."

That may be a little out of context though, as Bill was talking about "Child Worship" and the whole "Think of the Children" attitude...

I have a huge hatred for ignorance and stupidity...since where i live, both of those are in abundance. I hate seeing stupid/ignorant people having children, and raising them to be just how they are, not allowing them any freedom, morally or whatever. This addition of retards makes the world a more miserable place for people like me, and probably the reason your "geeks" never go out...I don't get out an awful lot myself, come to think of it, heh.

Of course, if you feel you could be a good parent, and raise an open minded, intelligent child, and not some closed minded media-slave or agressive brattish arse, then go ahead!:)

Rich 02-23-2003 05:00 PM

Amen. And remember Kids stand up to your parents!
