I want to have kids (eventually/in a few years), but feel like our technology has made our society unhealthy. A normal childhood nowadays seems to be filled with prescription drugs, vaccinations, scheduled fun, and obesity. How are you parental NTers handling this?

Im more scared of all the dumbass kids that will be in my childs generation.

Immune system depends on a lot of things.
Obesity is genetic.



As long as im great at parenting, i wont have to worry about my childs actions

I'm going in the opposite direction. Kinda looking forward to it. I'm just nervous financially.
 
I feel anyone who is not scared is not realistic. I undoubtedly want a kid one day, but I will not be coerced by any female who looks to replace her lack of love growing up with a child. It is not an accessory, and it takes a lot of love and time to raise a child right. I still have to buy a prostitute in Dubai, and climb mt. Everest before I settle down. Shout out to all the fathers on here, I know the work you do, and for that I am forever grateful. Please raise the youth to be humble, hard working, and kind. Peace.
 
Society is rapidly growing in a direction that is not conducive to an enriching life experience. It's definitely disheartening and I have no idea how things will be for generations to come. I honestly feel that we are self destructing, esp in America. With that said, I kinda want kids, but I'm in no rush. I know that it will be time consuming and expensive and I definitely want to do the job the best I can. There are SO many people having kids that are inept at raising another human being, which is ultimately littering the world with more mislead characters.
 
man **** all that all im askin for is a healthy & happy. I just hope me and the mother make things work. I feel that will always be key in a childs life/development; The parental relationship.

I feel like me having a kid will ruin my life. 
 
If you completely doubt your ability to ever successfully raise a functional and healthy child.... please get a vasectomy now.

no need in delaying

Yo preach! The thing that gets me is, children aren't pets. You don't have them, just to have one. I think people really underestimate the large amount of responsibility it takes to be a parent.

At 26, I am nowhere near ready to call myself a father. Especially with these ego filled women running around. I'm all set. I'll wait till' 38 the very very earliest to have a family.
 
Once you have kids, ain't no more "me time"
It's we-time, baby pa

I want kids after I travel the world, stack my cheese, stunt in the range Rover, and beat the brakes off my wife's box on a daily and I'm ready to settle down

Fax famb.



I want to be established in a career I want to be in or at least tolerate (right now my time in the navy is almost up and having a kid will definitely keep me in knowing I'm not trying to do this **** for 12 more years).
I want to cop everything I want (upgrade the coupe, more guns, buy a house)
Of course clappin them cheeks on the regular but also I just want to have that in between time of us living together for a while and just enjoying the time together finishing school. I'm not trying to marry my girl until I'm at least done with school and when we are married I want to enjoy marriage for a smooth 2 years with just wifey and I before having a kid.

I gotta be financially ready for it and have the feeling that I have done all I wanted and reasonably bought everything that I wanted before that next big step.

All this except the Range...
 
My baby tuns one month in a few days and I'm not gonna lose sleep over statistics. While I'm aware they're out there, I will put all my focus on trying to raise them the best I can.

Anyways, I can read those statistics from a glass "half-full" point of view. 2 out of 3 kids are not overweight, 5 out of 6 have no learning disabilities, 50% of children don't have a chronic illness, etc....

kids.....aren't for me .

Besides the state that America is in now I don't think that would be a good idea.
 
No need to overthink it. As long as you're a responsible human being with some sense you should be okay. Especially if it's you and your wife/gf. Some people spend years preparing and still eff it up. You'll learn as you go. :pimp:

Exactly.

People keep talking about the state of society like they have no intent of actually raising their childern.

Some of yall are taking YOUR parents for granted.
 
You wouldn't put 89 octane in a Ferrari. Don't put Mcdonalds in your 1 year old, and you're good.

Kids aren't hard.
 
There have always been learning disabilities, autism, ******ation, etc...those are the risks of having children.

As far as the overweight, technology, and ADHD stuff, you can control that stuff if you're a good parent. ADHD is way over diagnosed in this country. You can make sure your child eats healthy. You can limit their computer/gaming time, whatever.

I have a 10 month old son and its great. You should be more worried about getting your finances in order than all that other stuff.
 
Kids are great... yeah they take your time away from being yourself but its no better feeling when your kids are playing together and you catch them blissfully ignorant to the world around them and that makes it all worth the hassle.

All 3 are healthy and beatiful... they eat fruits veggies...protein and select fats... no health issues what so ever...

My kids are my joy and reason to go hard in the paint....

Not scared to have kids, just don't want them.

I'd rather have a rolex and coupe tbh.
