I love children

Some people do not enjoy being with children, my brother for instance does not want to have any. He also gets very bored when children talk to him, he gets annoyed if a baby starts crying and he is not the only one. I have met lots of people that do not like children. I just don't get it. I adore children, I die for little cute babies and it is my dream to have my own son/daughter soon. I really do not understand how is possible for some people not to love children

i never wanted to have children either. but then my wife got pregnant and we had a little girl and after a few minutes with Hannah I wanted to have 10 kids. We now have 2 girls; Hannah 3 and Emma 2; and one boy; Benajmin 1. We are also in the process of adopting 2 boys from haiti. So give him time I think he might change his mind later.

Lol, I am happy to hear that you changed your mind. Children make life more beautiful.

Children also keep you young and full of life. All those people who say they don't want children because they don't want to have to grow up are completely wrong and have got it 100% mixed up. People who never have any children tend to eventually become much more serious and conservative than those who enjoy life with kids. Ofcourse that's just my opinion and observation and not *always* the case but I do see that trend a lot with people who do not have any children.

Indeed, children are the blessing of God. People saying that becoming parent makes you grow up, actually have a point, because becoming a parent also makes you mature very quickly and makes you feel a responsibility you've never felt before. But, I agree with you, that having your house full of joy, children running and shouting is the best way to keep your mind-and body, maybe- young

It looks like my husband (Driscollini) beat me to the punch on this one! He really never wanted any children like he said. But, once he saw our beautiful Hannah he completely changed his mind. Before I got pregnant he always said he didn't want to have any children, then after we had her he wanted lots and lots and lots! I just hope that he's joking about having 10 kids, because even though I used to think that I wanted that many kids, I don't know about that any more! Children are a huge blessing from the Lord and He has given us such precious children. I love them very much, but I don't always like other people's children. If they are not well-behaved then I have a problem enjoying them!
