Right when I gave up dating, literally 24 hours later, we met. Quoting: Truth Be Known Gotta say, 28 years later, I’m pretty sad the last kiddo left for college. I miss them and realize, they’re the greatest experience I’ll ever have. By far. Truly a blessing. |

User ID: 75816770 Canada 03/18/2023 07:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | My Dad bailed after my mother told him she was pregnant. She lasted 15 months before I was adopted. That Dad bailed when I was 9 to go be a gay homosexual. The stepdad, 24 years older than the closeted homosexual adoptive Dad, showed up two years later and had zero interest in being a Dad. Had already raised four kids of his own. Not a victim. Just sayin'. Families haven't been what they need to be for a long time. No kids, no wife, no ex-wife is just the way it's playing out for some of us. Let the facts fall wherever, whenever, and however they may. INTP - The Logician.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 85130201 United States 03/18/2023 07:22 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | My point of view is different, wife wanted a girl and a boy got two girls blew the balls off I guess. Freaking rabbits sex was great now 3 a boy we are done. So I thought then sister dies with 4 kids now at 7 kids. Did make me work harder good thing but happy house was collapsing and did. Different moral compasses is all I can say. Well they all moved on never ask to come back but my daughter is thinking about it encourage her too but life in marriage is not always easy. A word will last but a hand that bruises different story. |

User ID: 85433003 Brazil 03/18/2023 07:25 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | If you had kids, would be a good chance of they behave as you don't exist. As f. ex. the Japanese Kodokushi phenomenon. Because you know, nowadays, most people prefer to spend their free time with a screen glued to their face, let alone the young. On their list of interesting things to do, being with their parents is usually at the bottom. That's just your fear of expiring alone talking, but guess what, most people will go the same way. Having kids or not. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 79453373 United States 03/18/2023 07:46 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Sometimes I feel good about it... Quoting: Lone Wolf. 81506701 Sometimes I feel not so good about it.. Not leaving someone behind kinda sucks... But this world is horrible, so there's that. It appears to me, most of the people with grown kids are ignored by those kids... So why bother having kids right? The way I see it is this - The only reason you should get married and have kids or vice versa is if: a) you meet someone you really like and enjoy living with her. Or b) you unintentionally have a kid. I would never join with a person I didn’t like just to have a kid. That sounds like hell. So there’s really nothing to think about beyond that. If you haven’t met that person, what are you gonna do? But who knows I can be wrong. I have a Filipino friend. He said “Hey you wanna get married?” I said huh?! He said yeah, “these girls want to get married..” and proceeded to show me some pictures. I said I don’t know. I don’t even know them. I was checking them out and hesitant of course.. He said “you’re too picky man, it’s no big deal, you just pick one and get married.” I don’t know maybe he’s right. I wouldn’t be doing all the cooking and housework if I did probably. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 85464123 03/18/2023 07:49 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Had 4 kids. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 85463265 Daddy was god. Daddy was sooo loved and adored Daddy helped them get drivers license and car. They said thanks dad... And fucked off into their lives. Have not heard from them in five years. No replies to texts... No calls answered. Nothing. I did hear from other sources that they all vaxxed. Are all probably dead by now. But as far as i am concerned... They all died in a tragic car accident 5 years ago. Cuz thats what it wss like.. Just...gone. Ive cried my tears..grieved.. And moved on. I still have the memories of their childhoods.. Thats enough for me now. Been there...experienced being a dad... Life moves on. Did you have a favorite child? I ask because this one issue can alienate children and it is not something that can be discussed (jealousy). It causes the favorite child to be alienated by their siblings. The favorite child may realize that they prefer the acceptance of their siblings rather than the adoration of a parent who has failed to be discreet in their preferential treatment. Just curious. |
