yeah it's hard when my mindset of a kid = financial liabilityOriginally posted by sillyme:That's quite a few.
Nobody can decide except the both of you. More importantly you're the one carrying the baby. Hard to weigh the costs and rewards hor? Maybe with some planning, some of the problems can be resolved.
Fortunately for me, my girlfriend and I want to have children and will start soon after our wedding
I believe all the concerns you listed above can be overcome.Originally posted by elindra:Actually for me it's more psychological then financial
I'm dead afraid of pain
I'm grossed out by anything unsanitary (yes a drooling kid grosses me out)
I'm afraid I'll be fat n ugly
The thought of having to clean the house more then what we do now is
No one to look after the kid
I'll have to shop less and buy less expensive stuff
And I'm afraid that Mr Pinky Bear will focus more attention on the kid then me

If your concern is mainly due to your dislike of kids, then you seriously need to think twice.

When SO and I leave the flat to go to work every morning, I'll say bye bye to our 2 foster cats, and I always think: Ahh...how nice if only kids can be as independent and left alone to their own devices at home, just like the cats. We just need to come back to feed them, clear the litter box, sayang them a bit that that about it!Originally posted by elindra:yeah it's hard when my mindset of a kid = financial liability
Plus I think a dog give you more love back and less headaches though it can't talk

Do you know the reasons why you dislike kids so much? There must be reasons for it. Is it because of bad experience you had? Seeing your friends' kids etc.Originally posted by elindra:My brother actually made a joke out of it
He says I imagine sis having a kid
The kid calls "Mummy"
and you see sis walking away in the other direction

I think I have seen too many brats for my own goodOriginally posted by honeymouse:Do you know the reasons why you dislike kids so much? There must be reasons for it. Is it because of bad experience you had? Seeing your friends' kids etc.
All kids are different and it all depends on upbring and discipline. Also, as a female, you'd have at least some kind of maternal instinct. May be you might react differently when you have your own kids one day.
Did Mr Pinky know you don't like kids before you were married?
Well, I do like to pat the cats, and having their warm furry bodies snuggle with me in bed...sometimes.Originally posted by elindra:Isn't mine better
