Reproducing

Post Reply New Topic

I had no idea were to post it so I thought I posted it in here seeing as how it ain't aspie related
anyway's I would like to have a kid(s) someday In my life and it seems weird cause i'm a guy and am rather young to be thinking about such things than most guys my age not now do I want children but I would want them later in life when i'm older but now there is still a lot of things I need to do with my life what I was thinking was if i'm still single when I get to a certain age I should just use a surrogate it's not that i'm against adoption actually I would like try that as well but I would like someone I am related to biologically and continue the line that my parents continued and there parents and all our ancestors that is of course if i'm not sterile
anyways I just wanted to know what you think of my little plan
I reach that age number and if still single and childless i find someone to be a surrogate
what do you think?

Just throwing this random idea out there... don't know if it would be practical or even sensible... you could always father some children via a lesbian couple who also wanted children - how or if the logistics of that would work I have no idea.

I have asked both my kids to not reproduce,the planet is to full and a strong history of mental problems on both sides of the family.

Tallyman that thought also occurred to me but technically I would not be raising it they would I could be involved in my child's life but by all accounts the lesbian couple would be the child's true parents
but if that's all I could choose from then I would go with that at least I would be helping some people with starting a family.

I wish more people thought like MissLizard!

One problem with surrogacy is that though you may have researched your family history for hereditary disorders, physical, mental, psychological, you cannot be sure about the individual offering (frequently selling) the other half of the prospective child's DNA.

There have been sad cases wherein the surrogate was still drinking, doing drugs, making choices of which the prospective parents were unaware.

In addition, here in America, there have been numerous cases of 'change of heart' situations, wherein at the last minute, sometimes AFTER the baby is born, the woman who gestated the child has chosen to keep it. Absolute heartbreak; thousands of dollars spent, prenatal care paid for, a child created, a baby fallen in love with,then taken from a person or couple who have no legal rights to keep the child, and no right to demand their savings back....of course, the money is gone, on the medical expenses!

A loving person who wants to give a home and raise a child would be the answer to an orphaned child's prayer, and there are so, so many who need a GOOD parent!

Slightly off-topic ramble, probably, but I can't help but think of all the children taken from unfit, sometimes dangerous homes, and no one to take them in......

I've chosen a life of celibacy due to my Gender Dysphoria. I'd rather live the life of a man than get married to and have a child with a man. Besides, the men of the 1990s - 2010s have never done a thing for me, anyways.
