Geniuses' kids tend to be of normal intelligence, iirc. Couple of applications, one fannish, one personal.
Fannish: kid-fics. Yeah, yeah, guilty pleasure, whatev. Child of Rodney McKay or Gregory House invariably brilliant in some way or another, be it father's field or music or something else. Degree of irritation depends on handling, but still. wrong.
Personal: though I'm not a genius, I am fairly bright, and what if I did have kids and they were stupid? or bigoted? I have no patience with people like that. Probably a moot point, given the myriad other cons, but one that popped up at me.
ack.
Am unwell again - yesterday/last night feverish - broke with a little help from venlaf. withdrawal (sweats, etc). Dry coughs, not too frequent, but a fit hard enough to make me puke. Ergo not really eating. Is bummer - are leftover party foods, trifle and such, but dairy products right now not for me.
Hmm. Grr. Etc.
May the new year treat you better than the last.
