Is someone... with child? Because if so, that changes things.
But yeah. I want kids. I'm not sure how I'd acquire them, because having them would be an issue, but I'm good with kids. I'd be a good mom, I think, in ten years or so. I'm way too young now.
If they're worried and unsure about whether they'd mess the kid up, they should wait. A kid is a big deal. Nervousness is expected, but... I mean, there's a limit. If your lifestyle can be detrimental to the mental or emotional development of a youth....
Although there's not as much deadly mayhem around me these days...
Frankly I'm kinda...on the fence with the whole kids issue, I've got nothing against them, per se, I just never saw myself as beeing involved with any.
Is there some place you can go for like training or something?
Not really. Well. Maybe really. It depends on your definition of old-fashioned.
Hey, well, there's no pressure on you to. Just general conversations with the younger demographic might help. See if you have that maternal/paternal spark or if you think they're just food/excretion/screaming machines.
Well, I look at 'em a bit more charitably then food/excretion/screaming machines! But I'm kinda worried 'cause I'm not a very patient person, I don't you have to be patien to have kids? Or rather you SHOULD be patient?
I'm a bit worried I might scar them for life or something!
I'm patient, myself, but I definitely understand that way of thinking. I used to feel that way about dating. That just by virtue of being myself, dating was selfish and unfair to the other party involved, and I'd Mess People Up. That feeling goes away, a little bit.
Maybe you should gradually learn to be around kids. I mean, do you have any friends with tiny people-shaped individuals? You can be Cool Aunt/Uncle Anon!

No, I don't think so...in fact I'm quite certain so.
What do you suggest for someone who...ASSUMES they'd suck with kids (that's me), like they'd be a bad influence, stuff like that?
