Do you want kids?

But, I think i'm sane enough so as I wouldn't brutally murder my own children.
 
I want too, but the fact is I don't know if I should. It really depends on what kind of life I can give to the child, and whether I am in a healthy mental state or not (I suffer from massive cases of depression).
 
Let me find a stable relationship, get a little older, then we'll talk.

I actually got into a conversation about having kids with a friend of mine, and I was scared about how serious he sounded...
 
I think kids would be awesome if they automatically skipped 5 when they were born. That way you don't have to go through a lot of crap.
 
the whole mind changing opinions is a valid statement. at this point in my life i hate children and if i could i would murder them all....brutally. They are annoying, naging, little pieces of shit (for the most part), but i know once i get older things will most likely change that

Yeah, I was a junior counselor at a camp. I helped with the second and 3d graders. They annoyed the hell out of me. All the girls grabbed at my pants and trapped me on the jungle gym and I couldn't move so I asked for help and the boys started getting in fights with the girls. I quit after one day.
 
No, I don't want to, so far being a parent and having kids hasnt ever appealed to me, I guess I could always change my mind though.
 
I'm pretty strongly leaning towards not right now, but I'm too young to be thinking about it too seriously. If the future world is going to be a crappy place to live, why would you bring additional people into that? Adoption seems more likely. It could very well be that a future wife will sway me towards having our own kids though. I'm not even really interested in meeting any girls right now anyway.

The thought of having a low responsibility lifestyle with extra disposable income and lots of time for hobbies, or even just sitting on my ass, appeals to me a lot. I'm pretty self centered.
 
I definitely want to have children, but no more than one or two. I'm not one of these people that's into the whole idea of living exclusively for my own self my whole life. I really don't even understand that way of thinking. But my wanting to have children is ultimately probably just another expression of my own self-interest.
 
When I become a rich musician I will have kids, because they won't be a shitload of work.
