getting pregnant and giving birth is like my biggest fear in the world, after death and getting old. i just don't want all these morning sicknesses, having to carry a child for 9 months, while your body expands, especially later, can't even walk around, so immobile. then, comes the giving birth part, so much pain, agony, while trying to get something out of your vagina.. and there is umbilical cord. and even after, children cry all the time, you won't have good sleep, and they suck on your breast. and if you don't discipline them, they become bad, and if you do, they cry even more, and become bitter. and they piss and shit everywhere (well, some do), and you have to clean after them. and they don't appreciate what you do for them until they grow up. i guess there's less hassle if you adopt, but there's still all the negative sides of babies (unless you adopt an older one, but they won't be emotionally attracted to you). and you're stuck with them forever, at least sucking off you for 18 years or so! (unless they disown you)
p.s. my mum had me and never wanted another one... even though i was really quiet and didn't even need to get toilet training.

lol...its all a big tradeoff and id say its worth it IMO. you obviously cant have been around any babies EVER to not realise this. the mother doesnt get that immobile, so they get a little sick it doesnt last long, there is drugs to ease the paina t birth...and when i first saw my mum holding my little sister she was glowing with joy..ie the happiest i have ever seen her. what about the umbilical cord..it gets cut...then taken away for research to be done on it or something. they do cry...you talk...its how they communicate, mothers can tell the difference between cries as to what the baby wants, no BS. " they piss and shit everywhere" they have nappies...and baby poo doesnt smell that much. and the rest of what u go on about is all dependandt on how you raise your child, if you are a good person ie. loving caring sharing you should rasie a good kid. you leached, presumably still are off your parents am i right??? repay the favour to your kids.

yep, i'm leaching, but next year when i finish high school and go to uni, i'm moving out. and i'd prefer repaying my favour to my parents when i grow up and they get old. and babies cry, because they're attention seeking, isn't there a research done to show that baby get really jealous from lack of attention from mother or something? and yet, if you shower them with attention, they get spoilt. i guess our situation is different. your mum obviously loves children, while my mum constantly reminds me how her life would turn out heaps better if she never had me.

Given it is one of our most basic biological drives, I would say it is a pretty damn big part of it.

so the meaning of life is to have kids?
The Human Race would have died out even before we evolved if we didn't have this mentality. Besides, if it weren't for the advent of the Pill and the whole lot of contraceptives, women would have no choice in this matter. Why do you think nature makes sex enjoyable?

Well, with exception of refusing sex at all and joining a nunnery.

after 30 why would you want to be as old as that to enjoy children i reckon around 23 is good that way you can still have fun with your ids and connect with them while being old enogh to assert your control

Even if you're still at uni and can barely afford to support yourself, let alone a child?
