I have a daughter of 2 year old, she's the best thing happened to us when we decided to take on the responsibility. THANKS GOD, AMEN. The feeling is great, she's so cute. Being a parent it's very tough, however knowing that we were ready, somewhat, and sometimes when I look at her, just the thought of what might have been if we chosen abortion. No guilt trip now but good feeling of being responsible just REALLY GOOD AND WORTH IT FOR US. After all it's in our nature.
Whos knocked up a girl who you want too have the kid but she gets an abortion?

#72Originally posted by bettilimbroke999Who would want the responsibility and cost of having some1 totally dependent on them, I'm not sure what the appealing side of this is, sounds like a real lose/lose deal, lose your money and lose all your energy and free time in exchange for just having a kid walkin around your apartment
A real lose/lose deal would be not having anyone around at all.
You lose your money on an investment that in the long run if done properly would be a positive thing for others (I dont see how you can lose on that), energy and free time? My energy is waisted on work and son, however my free time is well spent with or without him.
I have a house (remember I live in CR) ... and honestly ... I dont mind him walking around it at all ... its nice to know that your not the only one enjoying what you have earned and developed.Comment -

#76Child Free Couples Are Happier!
Guest Author - Kim Kenney
For the child free, this should come as no shock. But my guess is some parents will be surprised by the findings.
A recent study conducted by the American Sociological Association concluded that parents are more likely to be depressed than their child free counterparts. People without children were deemed happier than any other group, including empty nesters!
The authors acknowledged that as a society, “We romanticize parenthood. It’s difficult and it is expensive.”
This is reassuring news for those of us who have made the decision not to have kids.
The study lists obvious factors, including more worry, financial drain, and guilt over not being able to “do it all.”
I have some clear cut data from my own life that supports this research. I know that my newly minted mother friends are definitely more stressed than I am. If I have a long, hectic day at work, at least I know when I get home my house will be blissfully quiet and calming. For parents, the chaos never seems to end. When it’s finally bedtime, most of my parental friends aren’t far behind their kids drifting off to Slumberland.
They also have little time to even talk on the phone, let alone have a nice evening out with their husbands. Chris and I have plenty of time for each other, both for special “dates” and just to sit together in the evening reading or watching TV.
Money is probably one of the biggest issues. We often talk about how on earth people can afford to have kids, and how they just couldn’t squeeze themselves into our present budget. A few years ago, I refinanced my student loans for 20 years, so it is conceivable that if I had a child this year (at the age of 31!), I would be paying for my own education at the same time I sent my kid off to college! Unbelievable.
For me, the greatest factor would be the worrying. When my husband gets on a plane, I immediately begin imagining all of the horrible things that could happen. I worry when my sister and her husband are on a road trip, when my cats are home alone, and when I get my mother’s answering machine when she didn’t tell me she was going anywhere. All these things indicate that I could not deal with the worry of parenthood.
It is interesting how most parents know they are under intense pressure from these issues, and yet say they wouldn’t trade their families for anything.
That’s great for them. But I won’t trade my child free life for anything either!Comment -

Pluses:
Ya got a cute kid around (if you're lucky and your kid isn't born with Downs Syndrome or ADHD, etc.) for you to watch play video games and be happy spending your money
Minuses:
Too numerous to name, though I threw off the first 5 or so big ones that immediately came to mind in a previous post
