Does not having any babbies make you sad sometimes?

[BurnItDwn]

Sure you do, but women are only good till like 35.

Well, my GF is 27, and I know I don't want 8 of them... so I still have time

 

[Matthiasa]

Hmm since I'm in college having kids would be bad.

 

[ViviTheMage]

I am in my 30's and no kid, not even in a serious relationship right now (mostly, hit it and quit it lately).

I am not really sad, just glad that I have the time and money to do other things such as travel over sea, buy stuffs whenever I want to, do what or who (females only) whenever I want to...etc.

I am glad you had to specify who you do ... otherwise we'd never really know.

 

[Platypus]

I might adopt later in life but I really don't have any desire to at the moment.

 

[nageov3t]

I get sad until I realize I'm able to troll ATOT at 3AM. Take that, breeders!
Also my car's back seat is used as a temporary garbage can because I don't have any kids to haul around.
I think after work I'll go shopping because I can afford to :awe:

every time my sister has to struggle to find a babysitter just so she can go to the movies, I laugh a little

if I ever find myself gay married and financially stable, I'd consider adoption.

till then, it's nice that I can go out on a date after work, have tons of sex, and sleep over at someone else's apartment with no need to worry about who's watching my kid.

 

[ShawnD1]

Why does everybody say that?

because your girlfriend is 14

:rimshot:

 

[Kaervak]

I would honestly rather set myself on fire than have children.

 

[sandorski]

Not sad for myself, but sad for the rest of you.

 

[BurnItDwn]

I would honestly rather set myself on fire than have children.

Oooh fire. I like fire!!!!

The content of this thread brings the film Idiocracy to mind.

LOL.... good one..

Try 45-50+

I had my kids very early in life, so early that i'm going to be a grandfather very soon.

A woman older than 35 is considered AMA. this is the age when good 'ol recombination goes nuts and you start seeing a much higher increase in detrimental genetic abnormalities cropping up in those gametes, like Downs syndrome, as well as a much higher incidence of miscarriages and fertility issues. all sorts of crazy shit "magically" starts happening at that age.

BUT, with a whole lot of help, plenty of women can be having babies well into their forties. some even in their fifties, but that probably isn't a good idea.

I was thinking about adopting a 18 year old Swedish chick.

I've heard that this is offset by women aborting ones that will likely be retarded.

 

[EagleKeeper]

Miss our grandkids. Lucky if we are able see 2 of the 3 sets every other year.

There is something rotten in Denmark with your plan.

Sets? Are you talking twins? Two of my three nephews are twins.

 

[zinfamous]

I've heard that this is offset by women aborting ones that will likely be retarded.

well, the ability to know which babies will be ...."retarded," as you put it, is all part of the same industry that allows women to carry healthy babies to term well into their forties and on.

It's likely that those who do deliver a healthy baby well past AMA have gone through elective abortions and/or miscarriages.

the general public remains blithely ignorant of the reality of childbirth, strangely enough. The rate of actual miscarriages, for any age, would surprise most people. This is pretty much why we have the common practice of telling friends and family that you are pregnant only after a couple of months.

 

[zinfamous]

why, that sounds like a fine plan.

Also, Denmark is its own country...independent of Sweden. Sorry to crap on your attempt at wit.

 

[KeithTalent]

Nope. Kids are fine and they seem to really like me for whatever reason, but I don't care to have any at this point. If I were to have any I would adopt; way too many kids living crappy lives out there that could use a good home.

35, single and no kids here

i wouldn't say it makes me sad, no... it's neither something that i think about wanting or not wanting... i am pretty indifferent i suppose...

i am starting to think the best shot I have at being even some type of father figure is hooking up with someone that already has kids...

this isn't something i really give much thought to. when i was married, i thought kids were right around the corner and then my wife left. so that dream kind of died for me, and i've spent the past 1.5 years or so working my day job and doing my best to erase the memory of that failed dream when i'm not at work. how i do that is by keeping busy with hobbies and wasting time when i'm at home alone but

overall right now i'm happy, i realize i'm lucky... i try not to sweat the things that i don't have, children being one of them... if i am part of a child's life in the future i will try not to be as much of an a-hole as my stepfather was to me.

 

[IronWing]

Nope, not even a little bit. When I see little kids, particularly infants, I am sooo glad not to have any.

 

[JulesMaximus]

I never wanted babbies when I was in my 20s but I have an 8 year old son now and I really enjoy being a parent. Sure there are times when they drive you nuts but the good times far outweigh the bad.

Of course all bets are off when he becomes a teenager...

 

[ShawnD1]

Give him a really shitty car. That way he'll appreciate it when he can finally afford a brand new honda fit with a muffler.

 

[BudAshes]

Anyone that calls them babbies should not have any babies.

maybe people calling them babies shouldn't have babby
