And who decided you have to have more than one? I like your attitude but it's not just societal. It's all built in with the hormones; powerful stuff.

If you don't feel like it, lucky you. I'm sure if more women were able to think rationally about it, there would be fewer people.

My logic takes over my hormones and tell them to never have kids. Why some of you may ask?

A) Women are on their own raising kids...where the hell are the fathers? Probably drinking themselves stupid, getting high, being selfish, ungrateful, watching sports, and worse...cheating! Fathers are very rare.
B) Children are annoying, bratty, spoiled, and also selfish like men.
C) Children, men, and husbands take away your dreams and ambitions for life. It's their way of saying, "F**k what you want! What about me, b***h? Your only job is to take care of me!"
D) They empty out your bank account.
E) Pregnancy is glamorized in the upmost idiotic way: teenagers have sex without giving any regard to the consequences it leads, or just to keep a man in their lives.

I only give praise to intelligent and mature women who are lucky to have their jobs and the men who support them through thick and thin to bring children to the world.

MANY teenagers are responsible about sex! You just don't hear about them because they don't do stupid things and don't get pregnant. Some of us who have sex think about the consequences beforehand so only have sex with boyfriends we love and believe will stay with us if we do get pregnant despite using birth control.
Pregnancy is glamorized, but I have also heard many females (including my mother) say they loved being preggers! So maybe THATS why.

no offense, but many of them aren't. they think they know everything by doing the wrong things. bad parenting and the media are to blame for putting a negative image on everything in life, and easily influence the kids. there are very few smart teens out there in the world who can think for themselves and not what their friends or the media says. and yet they get a bad rep for being smart. it's also true when men get turned off by good, smart, and independent women and get condemned of possessing those positive qualities. maybe you said that 'cos you're from a different culture. if your culture's teens are as you say "responsible about sex", well then kudos. they could sure teach the teens of today a lot. there's a proverb that says, "the children are the future"...but i find that s**t hard to believe.

I was such a tom boy when I was young that I never thought there would be a day in my life where I would want children. However, when I turned 22, I started to realize that I was wrong. By the time I was 24, I gave birth to my precious baby boy and it was and still is the best day of my life!

My son is on the spectrum too. He has PDD-NOS. I would like to have another child, but my only fear is that I am not sure if I can handle two children on the spectrum, being a single mother with AS. I probably will if I meet the right man that I can trust will stick around, but 'till then, it's just me and my boy!

:wink:

I'm hitting twenty four in a few weeks and my "biological clock" definitely hasn't started ticking the way older women always told me it would when I was a bit younger and said I didn't want children.

Oh no!! 24?!

Just kidding! You speak as if it's old age.

I think sometimes women reach their 30s or 40s before they start wanting children. I never want that to happen to me.

Well, it's a fact that the teen birth rate is down in the US. Teen abortion is down. It seems that many teens of today (or their parents...) are doing something right.

I don't think it wise to discount hormones. Maybe some might not be so affected, but it's like everything; some people are more sensitive, some have hormonal imbalances, etc... All people are different and affected differently. Hormones are a lifelong issue for many people.

And what does it matter if a post is old? Isn't the question still valid? Should a new post be started and the old answers thrown out? Aren't the old answers valid as well?

It doesn't particularly matter.

Can men vote now? :lol:
If not, someone will protest over it saying it's equal rights. :wink:
Also does kidnapping count as wanting children? Never said they had to be your own. :razz:

I had a dream last night that I had a baby and I didn't know what I was doing and tried everything that I knew but still felt really weird about it. I breast fed the baby and my mum was gushing but I was looking down at the scene really weirded out and the baby's mouth kept slipping off. Everything was bizarre.
It's dreams like these that calm any broody bouts, they're like mental warnings that I'm no where near mature enough for kids yet.

But my femaleness rears its ugly head enough other times, ugh.
