But that might change. It might for you also. Remember, if people didn't have children, you cou'ldnt have written this article :) I would say see what you think about this in 10 years. You never know. Right now I can’t imagine ever wanting kids. But that might change. It might for you also. Remember, if people didn’t have children, you cou’ldnt have written this article :)

And most parents (I would hope!) love their children and are grateful for the opportunity to raise them. It's just very hard work as well. I suppose that, like anything else in life, it's a choice and it has it's positives and negatives. Maybe I'll write an entry focusing on the positives as well at some point. Very true Ross.

But I bet if you asked the majority of parents out there after their kids entered adulthood, they'd do it all again. So, stressful? Definitely. Worthwhile? Most likely, in most cases. But I agree, it certainly ties you down for a long long long long time---you won't have the a lot of the freedom you would have, otherwise.
