"Do you think you'll ever have kids?"

Personally, I don't.

Also, I feel that many people growing up in my generation won't settle down into the nuclear family structure... things are changing.

I don't dislike kids and would really love to have some in a way, I just couldn't be bothered with the middle part. Babies/Young - Cute, loving etc then they turn into my age and turn into little gits who take your money and youth then they can put you in an old person home.

My plan for life is to have a serious of relationships, none of which tie me down forever in some cul de sac. Then when I'm fat and unattractive I shall tour the world on my savings/loans then kill myself in spectacular fashion, avoiding years of loneliness and wetting myself.

I bet in the future they'll be like "Reproduction Clincs" where people will meet a partner to raise a child without actually being in a marriage... like a more formal seperated family.

No you poison the baby beforehand to make sure you finish both off.

and hope the dog chokes on it at the same time.

No you've got to think long-term.

Let the puppy grow up then you can feed the baby to it.

Thats what my parents told me about a puppy, and all it took to get rid of that was a can of petrol and some matches.

Exactly. I think I have more in common with the uncle in that I don't want to toil if I can help it.

I doubt either would swap with each other.

Yeah it's the whole 'living for the kids you have no life now' thing that puts me off. That and seeing my old nextdoor neighbours uncle with no kids pull up with his speedboat as his brother's kids look on in awe.

How long for, 6 months, a year, a baby is for life you know ;)

Yeah i know people who were used to be like that, then they became parents and you quite literally see the difference in them, there whole focus changes and they start to live for their kids. I think someone has said it before that the moment your kids are born your life is over, firstly because everything changes and secondly because it's all downhill after that.

Personally, if I have the money and I know I can support a child/kid. I'll definetely have one with my partner (which is indeed the other element needed).

I want a son. Not for a long time though.
