    “but kids need to
    be born!If they aren’t born, the human race will slowly decrease.”

    And this is a problem because? I have never spoken to anyone who wanted kids that could say why just “because I do”. I have never heard a logical answer to why and I have never heard one as to why having “the human race will slowly decrease.” would be bad.

    My point is that …
    My point is that kids should NOT be a make or break topic. People should choose each other because they want to be together. That should be the one and only reason. If a person makes that choice with kids even part of the reasoning process, pro or con they are looser. Anyone who gets married because that want kids is a looser. Anyone who would not marry you because you already have kids is a looser and anyone that would not marry someone who refuses to have kids is a looser you don’t need them.

    In my situation, my …
    In my situation, my fiancee decided he wanted me more than he wanted something society says everyone should want. However, if he felt strongly about it, I would have let him go. Kids are not for me, and for people who feel strongly one way or another, no one should force them to choose a direction of life which would cause them to be miserable.

    That was four years ago, and neither of us has changed our minds. Kids are one of those make-or-break topics; choose wisely.

    Why are women …
    Why are women obsessed with having kids? They’re making it impossible for me to find a woman who never wants kids.

    I would never let a woman change my mind or even try to.

    I never want kids …
    I never want kids either. I hate kids. I personally think more people shouldn’t have children. I wish there would be more women who never want kids.

    if a guy doesnt want kids..MOVE ON…what do you want to do? force a guy or cheat a way of having a kid witht his guy?..clearly a dumb move…what would result of that is pretty simple…

    1 you would end being a single mom
    2 the guy would be a ty father…and why wouldnt he…he never wanted kids from the get go…you did

    If you’d really …
    If you’d really love him, you wouldn’t dump him because he doesn’t want kids. Blackmailing him into it(it’s emotional blackmail sort of) won’t do anything good. I hope he gets over it and gets a real girlfriend.

    And it’s stupid to not think logically if you want kids or not. It implies a lot of responsibility.

    I don’t feel that …
    I don’t feel that long distance relationships are that hard actually, my husband is in iraq and im 21 years old. I know what i want in life (a bit of comment from your post below) and i believe that if one and or the other partner dosen’t want kids (biologically as they didn’t specify totally) then they should consider adoption. Unless they totally don’t want kids, then I would suggest you find an alternative. if you love him don’t play with his mind, it will devistate him.

    She loves him but is leaving over his not wanting kids? If that’s the way she feels then do him a huge favor and never look back. If she really loved him she would never leave him over something so selfish and stupid. If that’s where she is coming from go find a sperm doner and save him the pain.

    Don’t let your brain get in the way? That is just horrible advice! The guy was honest with her about not wanting kids (not all guys are) and it’s a deal breaker. Thoughtful and loving guy.
    She needs to USE her brain and realize he’s not the guy for her and move on.
    I’m not trying to be rude, but you should really think more carefully about the advice you give … some people might actually take it.

    I think it’s social conditioning… My personal opinion is that no one should even think about getting married or having kids until they are 27-28 when they start having a little bit of a clue as to who they are and what they want from life.

    If she wants to get together for kids then she needs to move on. There is a mutual disagreement. Not complicated.

    Why do so many women want to get pregnant by 25yo or so.. He does not want kids and you do. Send him a Xmas card with a picture of your new boyfriend.

    There are very few truly “irreconcilable” differences in relationships, but whether or not to have kids is one of them. If one person truly wants kids, and the other doesn’t, then SOMEONE is making a sacrifice if they decide to have kids anyway, and that sacrifice will create bitterness later.

    I disagree..use your brain. When you are talking about raising children ,the right way,you are talking about doing one the hardest ,most fustraiting and most rewarding thing you will ever do. That is not the time to have someone with you who didnt want kids. It will only lead to resentment on both sides.

    p.s. Jen is looking as nice as ever and I think both of you guys are doing a great job.
