Kids... why?!

It's innate. For your genetic makeup to continue on. Lots of men feel it, some don't. Same with women.

Pretty much what SprinkleMe said. Some basic instinctual/survival behaviors don't go away. Having kids is one of them.

I love my kids.... each one is wonderful
you have not lived until you see a child develope,,, its beautiful

I'm either abnormal or my 'biological clock' is on the fritz.

Anyway, stems from this guy and I hitting things off pretty well until I found out he would not settle for not having at least 3-4 kids. I do not and have not ever wanted to raise even a single child. He cast me off because of this.

well as a female i would love to have kids but i have a big ole question mark hanging over my head that being "am i able to have kids?"

I would have had one, but I always wanted to be married first.

So I never had the chance... Now that I am much older, I don't have the time let alone want to be 70 watching a graduation.

Now for some odd reason I see many peeps who have spent their lives going from college to get a BA or Masters, and working in the corporate world, end up with 3 or 4 children. Like their whole lives that they missed out on, are now played out by their offspring.

With the complications of growing up, I could not keep up with that many children and their issues. I would prolly hoard em away so they would not see the world as it is in reality.

I don't understand it either.
Especially with the world in shambles.
All I can think is how selfish it really is.
