Would you make a good parent?

bad parents beget bad parents. that's usually how it goes.

When parents are abandoners, snobs, racists, drunks, spoilers (lol, punny), neglectful, or just plain old stupid, bad habits pass down through generations into perpetuity.

So please, if you plan to raise children and are suffering from general lack of good sense, try to end the line, yes?

I am for the mean, but your explanation is pure speculation.

My parents didn't finish high school and I am about to decide if I plan to do a master in electrical engineering... so please, stop that nonsense...

A good parent? Maybe, but I would probobly spoil my kids terribly. But I love babies so I would definetly want at the very least 3-4.

i'm really sorry; i just get so frustrated that i begin to replace who i refer to with insults for them. and yes, it is mere speculation. i do that a lot!

Nope. I'd be overprotective and a hardass. Thankfully, I have no plans to deal with screaming little bundles of joy in my lifetime.Theokhoth

Whoa, slow down there. I can only ruin one person's life at a time. I have to make the mother hate me before I have a kid.

Perhaps more importantly, I need to find the mother first.:?

Nope. I've got no patience and dislike most things that come with the package of 'little kids'. :?

Not to mention I can't even drive yet. :P

Without fatherhood with a son, you may as well kiss your two-bit lineage goodbye.jazzkrotch

Pardon?

Names aren't really that important anyway.

I would make a great Father. I just don't want to be one. maheo30

[QUOTE="vlin1108"][QUOTE="jazzkrotch"] It's totally bogus, but as long as females continue the archaic tradition of taking the husbands surname on marriage, the man's surname will not live on if only females are born, and they marry clowns down the road.jazzkrotch

The daughters can always go the route of the -. A new name is formed. I was blessed/cursed with the double last name. It is amazing how confused people get when you have a double last name. They treat you like your too stupid to give your name.

I had great parents, but they made their share if mistakes raising me.

I'd like to think I would make a great parent. The only doubt I have is whether or not the mistakes of my folks were for the better, a necessary evil, or if I can avoid them in raising my own kids.

As of right now however I do not want kids. I just dont know how to act around them lol.

If you'd had some, would you read them pieces from the Bible every time before bed?

[QUOTE="Neon-Tiger"][QUOTE="mindstorm"] More often than that. :Pmindstorm

I don;t know if I would make a good father. It depends on a number of things. Firstly, I'm selfish, but I feel I'm responsible, I'm not too sure how I'd react to someone I helped create, and I'm not very... family friendly (friendly to my family), but I'm not about to abandon a child either.

Regardless, one day I'd like to have kids. I think if I was forced into such a situation I'd become responsible and be a good influence.
