I don't want kids, they are not on my plans. I have zero patience for them, absolutely hate them. Nasty little brats.

Who wants a screaming child in the house anyway? Always nagging, not letting you sleep, preventing you from travelling, from going out at night...always messing around, making you uncomfortable in public situations, it's just too awful to even think about having kids.

I have a nephew though, I tolerate him, he knows my boundaries. I see what my brother and my sister-in-law go through to raise him. My brother is not the man he used to be. Always tired, miserable, complaining about how much work the kid is, never wants to go out at night, acts like having to take care of him is the most heavy burden in the world.

I've had so many parents telling me they envy me for my freedom that kids aren't definitely a goal in life.

If that is your experience with kids, I truly feel sorry for you.

Well, Chessie, we are all much better parents BEFORE we have kids

Oh, and try to keep the expressions of bewilderment miminal when upon seeing the empty nesters you realize that you're still young looking and they look as if they have been working 24hr shifts for the last 18 years.
Oh right. My son runs half-marathons with me, and joins me at the gym several times a week. Yeah....having kids sure has roughed me up. What a imbecilic comment.

Will you tell me that kids aren't brats most of the time? I walk on the streets, I see it everyday. Most of my friends who had children became boring, don't know how to live the good life anymore.

And the worst part is having a mother like mine, saying that «you will change my mind one day, you'll be a good father». Spare me the laughing.

There'd be no risk of even having a reason to be pregnant with some of these people. What a turn off.

I can tell you kids are not brats most of the time kids don't change your personality! Good grief

My mum says kids change you forever, you usually become a much better person after they are born. Right...
