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.

If you do ever have it done then I'll give you one piece of advice: take the goddamn valium if they offer you one!

I'm so busy and arrogant, I can't possibly have an opinion.

What a point. Teenagers and students all think about the NOW all the time. I don't even know what day it is tomorrow, I'm just too foucsed on the NOW.

If I don't want kids now, it's OK, right? Because I'll wake up in 5 years time and have the urgent need to change nappies but 'Oh no, I forgot to have the kid. If only I hadn't lived for the NOW'.

Don't disregard peoples opinions because they're teenagers.

At the minute most of you dont think you will ever want kids because you're teenagers, you have too much stuff going on in life, and you think it will always be this chaotic, but once you have a stable job, (those that do) will probably have more time to think about having a family.
I think people who dont think they do now, will probabaly change their mind later on in life.

I want kids.
Probably quite a few of them, actually, but I'll at least wait until after Uni, and I have a good stable career going, so that I know I can support them.

Probably late 20's.

I'll have kids, not for a long while yet but I can see myself eventually settling down and having a couple of satan spawn.

I'm a very family type person and even though I wouldn't want them now, I imagine in time I will.

I was with you right up until the point you tried to tell me how to act. One assumes you've never been angry yourself? Or lashed out in anger when one has read something that you find personally offensive? Or even gotten on your high horse when you've heard something that sounds, to you, like cockrot? I'm not perfect, and I've never claimed to be; I make mistakes just like anyone else. What I DON'T appreciate is having a self-appointed moral guardian telling me how I should act, 'kay?

Anyway, point taken.

Over the years I've become very jaded after many bad experiences with customer services, you have bucked the trend. Polite and efficient from the Freeola team, well done to all involved.
