North america is just about at a depression, which is usually fixed by a great war which isnt far off if you watch CNN. Our food and air is bad... To me it would be very depressing to watch my kid live in such a bad time.
i think theres always bad times no matter what generation. uhhhmm, i dont think it makes you less of a man, but i would not want it for my man. i dont like permanent things like that. ill juststay on bc. besides i think lots of people dont want kids, until they meet the right person, and then they want them again.
I honestly don't feel that it makes you any less of a man or woman, however, neither my husband nor myself will probably ever have it done. It's more of an emotional issue for us than anything else, putting an end to our natural fertility. I mean, we're good at making babies. Not that we plan on having anymore children, I guess we just want to leave things as they are, if that makes sense. Perhaps later on down the line our feelings might change, but for now, we're cool with how it is.
For the people who say it doesn't, I'm curious to know how many would marry somebody they could never have children with. It's mean to say no, but I think a lot more people would compared to the number that would be willing to admit it. It doesn't make you any less of anything. You can still have a family, raise children, teach them to take over your empire etc etc. What's a blood line really matter? It's the knowledge that you pass on, not the genes, that make a difference in the end anyway.
I'd be more worried about you than him any day. Beckener, start reading about financial intelligence, and depression or not, you can give your kids the life you want for them.
You'd rather be married to work than at home taking care of your kids. Talking about nanny this and job that. I'd venture to guess you wouldn't be a bad parents as much as an absentee, out of the loop, "how did my kid get like this, I didn't raise them like this", crying, hair pulling parent.
