   @dtluna Same.  Having kids takes time and effort away from your hobbies which I don't want to give up.

     @why @dtluna I don't care for traditions.  And I would probably be a terrible parent.

     @archaeme @why @dtluna at least you acknowledge your own weakness. most young parents I see are full of themselves and can't acknowledge that they might be poorly suited to it.
     
     the true seeing is the heart of it.

     The reason why I won't be a parent is partly this. I am not suited well enough for this task.

     Personally, I don't think everyone is suited to being a parent. But if I were to put an argument forwards for it, it would that you can create a little family, filled with love and memories to cherish. It would be that you can learn a lot from kids, and watch them grow up which is beautiful. You can do the things that you wouldn't otherwise, and you'll be around family as you grow old. You can pass on your skills to the next generation, and make a difference in your kids lives. But it's not for everyone. It's better to be informed about the choice, and weigh the pros and cons up.

     Oh yeah, and then you have the grandchildren running about when you're old. Sort of puts the cycle of life into perspective, and the beauty of life.

     Awesome news! All the best. I think it's good for kids to have extended family around them to hang out with too.
