Having kids overrated?

Been married a couple years now. Wife is fine going either way with kids. Dont care what family thinks because...they arn't taking care of the child.

I love the pluses of bringing a child into the world, teaching them, enjoying special moments. But it seems like to get all that, 95% of the other time is a nightmare. But like a lot of other things in life(work, exercising, etc) sometimes it is worth it for that 5% enjoyment.

What do you guys think?

I am just a young cunt in his early years, so for some here that do have big families, is it worth it in the end?

I have a kid and she has became my best friend, she is 21 and doesn't want to move out, I don't think it's because I am an upstanding guy, I am a dipshit, she just feels sorry for me because doesn't want to leave me on my own, she is scared I will get lonely I suppose. Kids are cool, hard work and money eaters but it has been worth it.

I love her, she is the only person I can say I have loved, because she is the only person I do things for because it makes her happy not me.

Good thread OP, made me a bit sad, but I will sort that out now. "rolling a joint"

That = grandkids. Having kids is a pain in ass. It's a dirty trick mother nature plays on all of us. Not only a pain but expensive and time consuming. Put that thing back in pants if you ain't cut or don't have a rubber on. They'll ruin your life and take everything you own. Some will kill you and others will just hate you but it's your choice.

My kids really saved my life, probably wouldnt be here without them. Nothing planned (young men listen up, dont use any other condom besides trojan/magnum) and planning to have a kid has always honestly scared the shit out of me, but I literally couldn't imagine my life without them or their mother.

For me the equation is way flipped.. kids = 95% joy 3% worry 2% anger.

Good luck with your life, and try not to call yourself a cunt again.

I've got one child who is grown now and I have no regrets at all. I wouldn't change that for anything. I think I would have missed out on a huge aspect of my life without having a child. I love kids and I'm glad I had mine when I was young.

What a giant load of shit from you anti kid people. I love my daughter more than life itself. Kids are great, not all kids, your own kids. Fuck everyone else's kids. Really it is not that much more expensive than just living, they are expensive at the start with the diapers and baby food.

Kids are not expensive LOL thanks for the laugh
 
Simply, if you're planning or TRYING to have one... I dont think you're cut out for it. When it just happens, you're forced to adapt and GROW THE FUCK UP. Every decision you make not only affects you but them also. Just know that the little things you're used to doing, you'll only have 1/5th of the time to do that. Im lucky to get my gym time in everyday and thats all i really need to myself. Plus being married kind of takes the edge off cause that usually means you and you're partner are already on top of the financial ball.

At what age?.... Kids get expensive... Unless you have a fat lazy ass who doesnt participate in extracurricular activities. Also kids dont want wal-mart clothes forever...
yeh, right :) kids get super expensive. Especially when they start driving. I love all my kids. While I don't claim to be super dad, my life is surely better with them around.

Gonna take the boy to the new hobbit movie tonight :)

If you asked my parents, it wasn't about what I wanted growing up... it was about what I needed, and what they could afford. I didn't get fancy clothes or shit just because I wanted it.

It is fine for people to want to have/care for children. If you ask me, more people should want children. What I don't understand is why most people who do want children are so eager to make them all themselves, as opposed to adopting one or two kids of any age who really need a loving home and support.

I always told myself I didn't want to have a baby with anyone, and that if I was in a good relationship and wanted children I would adopt an older child. But, then I unexpectedly got a friend of mine pregnant. Now I have a 1 year old baby boy and I love him more than anything. Trust me the circumstances of my life at that point were far from conducive to parenting, whatsoever. Still there is no way I could resent my child; I don't even have any wild expectations for his future.

It has to be difficult looking after a baby or raising a child all by yourself, but luckily my son has a number people that love him and help out.
