CDIH

I have no legs.

I have 2, one in her first year of college and the my son will be starting prep school next year for two years to get a good look from hockey scouts. I will be empty nested at that point. My kids are my life. It is a blast raising them and I wouldn't have given up that chance for anything. Sure, raising two kids kept me from driving BMW's, owning a boat and all of those other material things, but I wouldn't trade the pleasure of watching them grow up for all of the other experiences life might offer.

:lol: That's not getting laid, man....that's a business transaction. However, that may be the beginning of the end of you ever getting any again....so live it up :thumbs-up:

nah, you'll get yourself action no matter what or am i one of the lucky ones?

:fuckoff: LZ

sorry metal.......i guess i am lucky! :thumbs-up:

I want kids, not sure when...hopefully within the next five years. I love kids but prefer to hand them back to the parents when I am done. It's weird cause I thought I would have them by now. It's strange but somewhat comforting to know people are waiting a while before they have them.

:fuckoff: LZ :lol:

No kids yet... never wanted any. I could be influenced away from this course of thought by the right daddy.

And I could easily adopt. I am curious about the experience of pregnancy... & labor... although that curiosity is sort of morbid. I witnessed my godson's birth a little over a year ago. Looked lethal. Is, I guess.

splat that's what epidurals and modern medicine are for ;-)

appeasiadomies, too :crackhead: (forget it, I can't even spell it)

It didn't hurt me any when my kids were born. :-D

you could probably still smoke in hospitals "way back then" :banana:

it was out there, I couldn't let it go .... isn't it any consolation that I don't do it often? :-p

If I grabbed everything that was just "out there", I would smile more often. :banana:

I have one son. Truthfully, I didn't really "decide", it was more that it was expected. I was 25, pretty young by today's standards when people are waiting til their 30s, newly married and hooked on the whole family thing. I'm an only child who married into a family with 4 kids, and had never even been a babysitter.

I stayed home for the first 4 years of my son's life, then I got divorced and had to put him in pre-school so I could go back to work. It was tough, but it's to the point now where if you DON'T put your child in daycare, he ends up lagging behind because they put so much emphasis on learning.

Anyway, he's almost 12 now. For the most part I love him to pieces, but sometimes (less this year than last year) he can really get under my skin.

I always thought I wanted 2 or 3 kids, but after raising one on my own, I'm glad I don't have more. I don't have the patience for it.

If I knew then what I know now, and could live with the decision, I wouldn't have any. While it's worth it, it definitely puts a damper on your life, although my 2 dogs and a cat also put a damper on things. Do I miss not being able to just do what I want, when I want? Of course...who wouldn't? But you adjust.

For those of you who think kids mean going to bed by 9, that's just not so. After they go to bed is when you have to get all your stuff done. :lol:

yup, i want'em.

i have always wanted them ever since i was little.

3 would be perfect if i could afford it...if not one would do.

i think i would be a good mommy, god knows i have has lots of practice.

Do you dress Maynard in little booties and powder his bottom?
