alt friday 5 kids edition

From the [livejournal.com profile] altfriday5:

1. Do you (or if you have them, did you) want children?

Yes, someday. If today I met the woman of my dreams, future mother of my children, I could see having kids 2-5 years from out.

2. In reference to 1: why or why not?

Instinct to procreate? It’s a pretty strong feeling. Just feels right.

3. How sure are you of that choice? Why or why not?

Pretty sure, occasional doubts. But right now if I imagine myself 50 years from now without having had kids I imagine feeling incomplete for not having done that.

4. Could you be persuaded otherwise (e.g., if your partner(s) felt differently)? Why or why not?

Maybe. If I found the woman of my dreams with the one flaw that she didn’t want kids I might go along with that. If she’s poly maybe I’d have kids with someone else.

5. Has anyone ever tried to persuade you otherwise? If so, tell us a bit about it.

No, it hasn’t really come up.
