          And there's why I'm not having kids for yeeeeaaars. If ever. Reminded me of this scene http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Nx2A5j2NjMw .
          You remind me of the babe
          What babe?
          The babe with the power
          What power?
          The Power of voodoo
          Who do?
          You do!
          Do what?
          Remind me of the babe!

              This one is pretty good, too:

              Every moment of a life is a horrible tragedy, a slapstick comedy, dark nihilism, golden illumination, or nothing at all; depending on how we write the story we tell ourselves.

                Preaching to the wrong choir. I have zero duty to keep our species alive. There are 7 billion of us. If a few million people in my generation don't give birth, it's not going to wipe us out as a species.

                It's child-free for me.

                  Out of curiosity, have you had your tubes tied or anything like that? It makes a much more profound point if you have a permanent (or mostly permanent) form of birth control. Nobody believes me when I say I'm only having the one. Until I pull out the "My tubes are tied, I'm serious" card.

                  I wondered if he could ever understand that it was a blessing, not a sin, to be graced with more than one love.
                  It could be complicated; of course it could be complicated. And it opened one up to the possibility of more pain and loss.
                  Still, it was a blessing I would never relinquish. Love, genuine love, was always a cause for joy.

                    Is true Shahaku...two is about the limit for most these days,more about the cost than care...expensive to raise a kid,and 18 is not the end of your responsibility,trust me on that...I have two kids one just hit 40,the other is 35 and you are still the parent.

                        No, I haven't. Quite the opposite, in fact. I don't even use protection most of the time*. I'm not on birth control, nothing. 9 years of having sex like this, and still no babies.

                        *Protection with new folks, or when we don't feel like pulling out. I know it's reckless, but I also don't care.

                          Better not to have kids if you feel you don't want them...Having kids is NOT for everyone...

                            ^^^ Absolutely. It's the social pressure that gets a lot of people into it, just like lots of other things.

                              I didn't even need to read this blog post to know my position on children, although it certainly helps cement my position on the subject. I've worked in retail.
