I'm indifferent. I like kids when they aren't being a PITA, and then I'd rather not see them at all. I guess in a few years, though, I'll be stuck with my own hehe

My little cousins are great. They'e 6 and under and they think I'm the best playmate ever. Some may be annoyed by them but it's funny when each one is yelling your name at the same time trying to get you to watch them do something.

I know I would never want one in my life... voted for as long as they stay out of my hair.

Since I have 4, I'd have to go with "they're cool", though sometimes I wish they'd stay out of my hair.

Very true... but sometimes they can be quite fun to toy around with, especially with SAT logic questions :D

That's like saying Sony products are great, when they work... I'm talking real-world here ;)

I dislike people in general but I've found children up to about 14 to be the most sincere and straightforward of our species. There's little duplicity with children, pretty much what you see is what you get. That's admirable. The egocentric self-absorbed, discompassionate fvcks who call themselves adults could take a lesson from a kindergarten class any day.

The truth is that children are not 'little adults' it's that adults are just big children. Our needs don't change any any fundamental way, but our designs to acquire those needs become infinitely more fvcked up.

My opinion.

Well behaved children are cool, self entitled rude little bastards suck. Unfortunately there seems to be more of the latter these days.

hahahahah... i don't mean perfect angels but some kids piss me off (worked in a afterschool center) most were cool but 2 or 3 were just freaking little devils. I don't know how the hell they were raised.

My 4 YO and 2 YO are probably the best behaved children I've ever been around. I've been around alot of bratty kids so I guess I can count myself as very lucky.

I like kids in general though.

I've got three, my youngest son's friend has been staying the summer and my wife is watching two and making a little extra money while their mom is on business so I would have to say that I think they are great. True, when you have that many around for an extended period of time you cherish some quiet times but I've survived so far.
