Why have kids?

Recently,this question puzzles me a lot. Actually,giving birth to a baby is quite suffered,and what else,you must spend plenty of time on them,and when they grown up,they may just say "I want to have my own life",then live away from you and seldom visit you! And for you,you will find that you sacrifice so much in your lifetime for your children. So,if you realize all these,would you rather have no kids?

I would still want to have a kid. I want to have two twin boys actually. Your supposed to spend time with them to teach them and love them. And of course when they are grown up they have to move away. That's how life goes. It's a cycle. That doesn't bother me at all I really want to have kids later on in life and If I am not able to then I guess I'll just have to adopt some.

Any mother that says they have never thought "i wished I'd never had kids" would be lying. At some point the thought does cross your mind, but it's a thought. I have three children and i love them dearly and wouldn't give them away or wish them away. I couldn't imagine my life without them now that I have them. To answer your question, yes i would still have my children. Children won't always do the right thing or say the right thing and many times they will probably disappoint you at some point in their lives, but it's our job to love them and teach them. why would anyone not want to have a child to love and take care of. these children love you unconditionally until a certain age. they depend on you. children are such a blessing and they are always there. you and your children will laugh together, and cry together, and be mad together...but they are still your children and you love them no matter what. God bless

i understand your point of view, i myself ask that questioned all the time no one seem to have a proper answer, i myself can't explain it , i have witness alot of women giving birth, its such a beautiful and painful moment,the joy that is expressed in their faces, they say it's the best moment in their lives,i see the problems parents have with their children,but even soo , if i told you that i don't want to have kids, i will be lying , cause i still want something thats part of me , that i can claim and say thats mine it came from me , i wish i could explaining it more but i don't know how.
