[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.  The reasons we have really have nothing to do with the kids themselves.  The kids are amazing and I love them more than anything.  They bring me joy and make me laugh.
I'd give up my life for those kids, just as I would for my own children.
The reasons have to do more with what we would lose from our life.  Sleeping in, spur of the moment trips to Las Vegas, long, lazy Sundays, spontaneous sex amd sleep to make a few.  We are really good at being married.  We realize that adding kids to that would change us completely.[/quote]

I'm in bed right now. Eventually the kids grow up. In fact at a certain point they start sleeping until noon if you let them, or just get up and watch TV. So the not sleeping in part was surprisingly short for us. We are now empty nesters and are back to spontaneous trips (not Vegas though, not my thing). We've managed to stay good at being married and it's been 28 years. Not trying to convince you, i agree that you probably shouldn't have kids, but maybe not for the reasons you state. [/quote]
