Do you have confidence in your ability to raise a child? I do not plan to , but am ready to accept such responsibility if it came my way.I an unsure of how I would be as a parent though. If you do have a kid , what would you say are the best parts , and what would you say are the hardest parts ?

When i am ready to have children, yes. I think so.

I have babysitted a lot of little cousins for a few weeks at a time. I know i can do it.

But i live by the phrase " the moment that baby is born, is the day YOUR world has changed forever. It's not about you anymore, it's about him/her"

of course you can't spoil your kids rotten, because well... you get nasty kids in the end. But the point still stands, it's a big responsiblity and it cannot be taken lightly.

I definitely do plan on taking the necessary precautions to prevent such a thing from happening , since having a kid is on my list of things I would avoid like the plauge.

Right now I'd say I lack the patience to be a good parent, nor do I plan to have children anyway. Who knows what'll happen down the road though.

Yeah, I'd make a good one for sure. Possibly an amazing one.

I love kids but they do need much caring time. So not going to give birth to many!

I think I need to work on finding a girl who would want to have my child before I think about it.

"Good parent" is probably something that there is a lot of different definitions of. But I love children and I do think I could be an okay parent, though I have no plans of becoming one anytime soon. My biggest problem would likely be stress and worry, though. I'd be afraid I wouldn't react well to certain situations and I would probably always worry I was doing something wrong. I suppose I wouldn't really know until I actually have a child.

Hell ye, I'd make my kids play Quake 1 or 3 or Live first, and no other fps. Make them become a master of strategy and have even better LG and Rail than me if even possible and they will be super true warriors.

I'd only let them play CSS once they've become masters at Quake because CSS teaches bad habits.

Oh and like me start them off with some good o'l sonic 1-3 and knuckles, some streets of rage, but only on hard difficulty at least, I dun want bad habits formed.

something like this in mind, except my kidz wud be way bettar ofc cause they got teh aim of a true warrior from me'z.

I was planning on giving it a test run by being an aunt first, but apparently my brothers don't plan on having children.

I really don't know if I'd make a good parent. I certainly hope so.

At this point? No. Once i can support myself and my kids financially with ease and have matured and gotten wiser, then yes.

Hell no, way too laid back and childish. Still gonna have kids though and they'll probably think I'm a good dad then realize that my terrible upbringing has ruined them later in life.

Same here.

At the very least they'll be able to thank for me for improving their gaming skills.
