    I do not have any children. In the future, I would like to have between two and four. However, there are several factors that must be taken into consideration (i.e. how my future husband feels, money, living situation, etc.) To be honest, I would like to adopt children. There are enough homeless kids in this world that need love and I could put the selfishness of having my own aside.

    yeah i agree. i didnt try to get pregnant but i admit there is a certain appeal to having something- SOMEONE!- made by my baby and me.

    however, i defiantly wanna adopt one or two.

    I don't know if I want any children. I would like to have one in a nice happy marriage. Maximum of two. After two either my wife's getting tied or I'll get snipped. I don't know what I would do if I got a chick pregnant outside of marriage 'specially if I didn't like her...

    If you did not like the woman to begin with, then why would you have sex with her?

    The vote is still out for me. I had always thought that when I got to that point in life where I wanted to become a father, that I would want to have three kids. This has always been my thinking when I had those, 'when I grow up thoughts'. Now, I'm nearly 30 and don't have any desire to be a father. So who knows, I may or may not have kids someday. I'd like to think that I'll be a father someday, but for now and the foreseeable future, I don't really have a desire to be a dad.

    I only have my god-daughter at the moment....

    When I'm older, and married...I want at least 4....I'll take as many as I can get (be it by adoption, pregnancy, or fostering)....I'd not be phased if I ended up with 20 or more...I'd be ecstatic...

    wow 20?!?


    Like I said before, if I were to become a father, I would like to have 3 kids. Part of the reason for that is that I am one of two children and always wished that I had another sibling. That being said, I can't imagine why anyone would feel the need to have more than 3 kids. I don't look down upon those who do have more than 3, but I can't understand why they would choose too. Five people seems like a plenty big enough family to me.

    I am one of 11 children. My oldest sister has 7. My next sister has 5. My next sister as 6. My oldest brother has 6 and there are no signs of him stopping. My other brother has 4.

    When I was growing up, my mother took in ALL the neighbour kids. Most nights out of the week, we were cooking and feeding damned near 20 people. I only know how to cook in bulk. Not to mention, I loved being part of such huge groups. It was quite an experience...But I do not think most people could handle more than 2 or 3...It takes a certain type of personality and a certain type of upbringing...Like mine...I was designated babysitter and always sat with large amounts of kids for extended periods of time. I can handle large groups of kids. :)

    why arent women afraid to have children? i mean, doesnt it hurt like a mof? Its like going out of your way to get kidney stones or something... I would be more scared than happy if i was pregnant.
