Do you hate children?
 

I do. They annoy the hell out of me. I don't see why anyone voluntarily has these things.

I'm also annoyed by them, but I'd be nothing but completely naive to think that my opinion won't completely change if the day comes that I have them. I don't hate them. I just don't like being around them, but that is simply because I just don't "get it" yet. Eventually, I will. I know that I am wrong in my opinion now.

Only the ones within a 1 km radius of where I am........LOL


:rasta

LOL..........Just so they can annoy the hell out of you... j/k

:winkwink:

lol, i can't imagine not having kids in a few years :thumbsup

I am sure someone somewhere hated you when you were a child..the world goes round :1orglaugh

The question you gotta ask yourself at a time like this is, did my mother have any kids that lived?

I once saw a bumper sticker that said: "children should be beaten and not heard"

Some people's kids, I tell you.

You don't learn what life is all about until the day you create life yourself.

It changed my entire perspective on everything from a to z.

You won't experience anything as profound on your soul until the day that little head pops out and you realize the power of God is within all of us.

i can't tell i do, until they become adults!:1orglaugh

:thumbsup

KRL's right. When <i>MY</i> little head pops out, I AM god!

I have to agree with you. I think my problem is that I'm so impatient. I will never have kids because it was never meant to happen. My mom keeps telling me "it's different when they are your own". I don't think so.

Bullshit. You have hormones that kick in after you have children and fuck up your brain. Fact of life.

I don not ever hate children, actually I love them, I really really like their company, I do enjoy playing ang mingling with them.... it's sad to hear that there are people who got annoyed with them, those kids who are for me are always lovely and fun to be with.

i love children really, they made me feel young and ease all stressed

it's very different when they are your own...your mom is very right..

I'm glad I have my kids.. the youngest may drive me completely mad most of the time.. but they are the reason I have some kind of direction in my life.

Some women get that urge a little later in life.. it happens..no denying the hormones..

I know I would not want to grow old without any family to love me .

The only fun part of having children would be actually disciplining them and then when people ask why your children behave and theirs are little monsters, explain the concept of spanking.

I know my mom's right, she always is. I still don't want children but I agree with you on "I know I would not want to grow old without any family to love me ."
I call my two dogs my kids but I don't think they are going to be much help when I'm elderly - lol.

I don't have children, but I love them! Children are great, it's nice to watch some of the silly and cute things they do!:thumbsup

I hate kids as well.

STFU YOU STERILE BASTARD!! I HAVE 6 AND I LOVE THEM ALL!

I dont care to have any, but Im sure they would grow on me if they were my own.

Depends what age, as soon as they hit 7, they become fuckin anoying!!

you are also still very young.. I didnt want any kids when I was young.. but that was not in my cards.. I have 4 total now.. 11 more years of childrearing and I am done. The older ones are really handy to have around the house.. they do chores and ask you for money...lol. I do have a friend in her 50's that never had kids..she adopted me as her "child" and I have been calling her mom for over 20 years.. she is now a nanny ironically :winkwink:

I have high respect for you brother!! :thumbsup I could NOT even think about not having my babies

they are monsters put on this earth to ruin my meals when i eat out.

i dont hate them but its true that they are pretty annoying sometimes. especially in movies and restaurants

i used to think they were fucking annoying til i found out im gonna be a dad by the end of the year...

I hate people who don't control their children. I rather enjoy kids, actually.

They are OK broiled but, yes I do hate the fried ones.

most of them, yes. I didn't even like then when I was a kid.

I love children. You just have to be patient and understanding to live with them. :)

most

most common reasons people have children:

- accident
probably the most common reason .. too lazy/irresponsible to use birth control.

- tradition
family/social pressure .. not having kids isn't really even presented as an option.

- ego
the "look what I made/ I am god / extension of myself / immortality by proxy" selfish urge


but these are just conscious rationalizations of a hidden genetic agenda.

:2 cents:

I like kids by proxy, my sister brings them by for a few hours and by the time Uncle Erehwon is tired of them, they disappear. :1orglaugh

Anyone who hates children and animals can't be all bad.

I like children - fried.

I never met a kid I liked.

Children that are not my own can get on my nerves very easily.....of course...my own children can get on my nerves. They keep life interesting though, and I think along the way the kids taught me a few things.
Things like putting others before myself...working long past the point of exhaustion to make someone else's life better...they have taught me how to laugh harder...and cry longer...they have taught me responsibility and how to see life's innocence.
They have forced me to be creative and showed me how to adapt and be devoted. I guess the most important thing they taught me though was how to love someone with every fiber of my being...and just when I think it is impossible to love anything anymore than I do them....they give me a certain look sometimes and I understand that my love will always continue to grow for them, that there is no limit.

My boy requires very little patience, he's an angel and a blessing :)

You're too hot to have stretch marks :)

as a whole no - i do get annoyed by SOME KIDS though - i also get annoyed by some adults.....

if i have kids of my own they'll be on a different level than other people's children in my head - that much i know.
