Do you have children?

[elfwitch]

Poll question: Do you have children?

How many ankle biting, house apes do you have in your abode?
(Sorry I meant how many precious little treasures from heaven?)

9. Just because they are grown...

doesn't mean they aren't your children. My mom always reminds me of that one.

[Skittles]

5. no

and the people I know who have children, I think a good 25% of them should not have had children.

[jus_the_facts]

11. No here too....and I agree with ya...but it's more like 75%.....

....of the peeps I know who shouldn't have had any! :(

[Drifter]

6. Because I want my family name to continue ...

I have been cursed ... er ... umm ... I mean blessed with 3 daughters.

Always wanted at least 1 boy. Now that I have 3 daughters, I am not sure I know what I would do if I had a boy.

I love girls.

Cheers

10. The only thing biting my ankle is the college tuition.

[elfwitch]

12. My baby....

The one and only. :loveya:

[foxy]

19. He's sweet looking..or are looks deceiving?

:)

[elfwitch]

21. That's how he draws them in...

Pure evil that one is.
He plays all cute and shy and then once he has lulled you in to a false sense of security it's BAM!! right over the head with his demands and evil plots.

Not really. He is a really sweet little man. He never acts up in public. He saves his bad behavior for home. He is very loving and VERY smart. I often wonder how I got so lucky to get him.

13. Empty nester here

2 grown children -- 1 girl and 1 boy.

I have one fur child now, my 6-year-old Rottie.

14. Other: I am still a "child"

18 and in college, no way do I have kids. I would never post on here if I was 18, in college AND had kids! Whew! Good vibes to those who are in that situation, I know plenty and they need it!

[ProfessorGAC]

15. Yes. With A Nice White Wine Sauce.

Just kidding. We couldn't have kids, though we wanted them. My wife miscarried at least 4 times and said "That's enough!". I couldn't possibly argue with that. So, we just said "Oh, well."

We looked into adoption, but right about the time we had all the ducks in a row, the Baby Richard thing happened and i was so depressed over the loss of meaning of "good faith" that i said the heck with that. No way would i expend the emotional energy to raise a baby, then have it pulled away because one of the parties lied. No way.

So, we have our little beasties (and one not so little one), and that's that.

20. I'm sorry to hear that Professor

I've never experienced a miscarriage, but a good friend of mine did when she was 6 months pregnant. It still rips me up just thinking about it.

[ProfessorGAC]

22. It's A Bummer, Indeed

After four of them (all after at least 3 months) we had had enough.

Some things are simply not meant to be.
