[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Dude, she wants a baby insider her. With a stable man of means.

Use protection until you get snipped.

I have two toddlers with my wife. I can’t imagine getting my kids to age 10 and 12…and then starting all over again with a new infant. That’s being a glutton for punishment. [/quote]

I didn’t regard raising kids as punishment. I had a blast. I’m not planning on doing it again, but a hot thirtysomething could probably talk me into it.[/quote]

Plenty of hot 30-something’s in the wild who don’t want to talk you into a baby.

I’m in the messy guts of the child rearing years and you’re reminiscing with rose colored glasses. I’m early 40s right now and having a new baby at 50 would probably nearly kill me. No way would I have the bandwidth for that, especially if your older kids are becoming more independent and you’re getting to reclaim some of your personal time. No hot piece of tail could ever talk me into that.[/quote]

My kids are 13 and 16 and I'm not "reclaiming personal time". I'm doing as much stuff with them as ever. Sports, extracurriculars, vacations, helping with schoolwork, hiking/biking, etc.

Not to mention, as I instantly realized as soon as I had kids, the time you spend being a parent is infinitely more valuable and rewarding than any of the dumb sh*t one does with "personal time" before kids. You want your "personal time" back so you can surf the web on your phone and what else? That's weak.[/quote]

Well said!  To this day if one of my now adult children call and say you want to grab a coffee I drop whatever "me" think I'm in the middle of and get that coffee or meal with them.  These are priceless moments and there is nothing I like more than being in my children's company, with or without my husband, and sharing their ever expanding worlds and mindset.  But then, I never resented my children, not once.  [/quote]
