Since I am on a roll with these types of questions...
Someone made me think of this.

How soon after marriage do you plan to have kids?


-- Posted by bosss at 12:07 pm on Jan. 6, 2009

1-2 years?

-- Posted by BubbleCake at 12:07 pm on Jan. 6, 2009

Maybe a within a year or two of being married. That is if I do get married. I don't know if I want too...

2-3 years, hopefully.

Whenever it happens.
After at least one year. I don't really want to get married

i don't plan on having kids or marrying, all children do is empty ur bank account and stress u to the max


-- Posted by Wii Tard at 12:09 pm on Jan. 6, 2009

year or 2

It depends on when I get married.  If I do get married after undergrad, and decide to persue graduate school, then I would wait until I was done graduate school.  That would be about another 4 years.  I've reached this dilemma, that I want to have kids as soon as possible, but I also want to be able to work... so if I have children the instant I finish school... it kind of defeats the whole purpose!  So technically speaking, I may be around 30ish when I have children... O__O.  So it really just depends on when I get married.

no kids


-- Posted by Z o E at 12:09 pm on Jan. 6, 2009

And obviously you can't do the world the favour that your mother did for you. That's selfish, if that is why you don't want to have kids. I'm sure you appreciate being born and raised.

Wheneve your ready


-- Posted by akallen at 12:11 pm on Jan. 6, 2009

Having children is just as selfish as abstaining from the process. It's narcissism packaged in a smaller body. There is no right or wrong to the matter, as long as the person sticks true. The worst situation is a parent who didn't want kids.


-- Posted by jacobs at 12:15 pm on Jan. 6, 2009

uh, we haven't talked about that yet but maybe 2-3 years?


-- Posted by Smargon at 12:15 pm on Jan. 6, 2009

I don't plan on getting married.
But I'd like kids around 30ish.


-- Posted by Chiefette at 12:17 pm on Jan. 6, 2009

I plan to start trying for kids within the next year or so....


-- Posted by Drunkwhore at 12:18 pm on Jan. 6, 2009

-- Posted by rahawr at 12:19 pm on Jan. 6, 2009

prolly a year. maybe two i guess but i doubt it :p maybe not even a full year haha


-- Posted by Narfled the Garthok at 12:23 pm on Jan. 6, 2009

Several years as I want to ensure we as potential parents are stable enough to support such a responsibility. I do not want to put a kid through a divorce, or a shitty childhood because we decided to rush into things.


-- Posted by Gaelle at 12:24 pm on Jan. 6, 2009

Not very soon. I'm not that big a fan of kids, but my fiancée's enthusiasm about them has been rubbing of on me lately.

I'd say we're getting married when we're around 23 and we'll start *thinking* about kids when we're 25.


-- Posted by Chiefette at 12:24 pm on Jan. 6, 2009

In all reality, divorce can happen no matter how long you waited to have kids...A divorce does not necessarily mean a shitty childhood either.
