Poll: Do you like children?

[Lady Nilstria]

I picked the "yes, I love everything about children" choice, but let me expand.

Yes, I love everything about children who aren't disobedient brats and think they can wind me around their little finger with a mere quibble or cry.\

And I also agree with Simmeh. Most kids would be a pleasure if they had good parents who taught them right from wrong and disciplined them when they needed it.

 

[TailsRodrigez]

Since i love to work with children, i do!

(i am a counselor)

 

[Octorok]

My electronic tag says yes. My confiscated whip says no.

 

[LogicNProportion]

I get along real well with kids.

I find something admirable about their innocence and simple (yet usually correct) views on life. Them and animals, I just can't be mad at.

 

[Mookie_Magnus]

I'm not allowed to like children anymore. Stupid court system.

I like children. They're fun and easily amused. Not to mention that they are adorable... If you'll excuse me, I need to go do something manly.

*goes to hug an adorable child*

Sorry... But yeah, I like kids. I look forward to when I have my own.

 

[Slayer_2]

They're alright, in short bursts. Having kids is unimaginable to me... That's probably good at my age.

 

[Gestapo Hunter]

Is this a trick question?

 

[Reep]

My family has adopted our little cousins, had them both almost since birth, and they have honestly put me off having children completely.

So no, kids piss me off.

How could hating children speed up global warming?

the argument is that having more children increases population densities, and dense populations are consummate polluters, due to more cars, and more industry to support the larger populace. Not to mention more mouths to feed, which can lead to bad land use, which leads to denser populations.

One kid doesn't cause Global Warming, but the argument is a few million families choosing to have just one or two more kids can have an effect.

Yes but hating children would reduce births, and slow down global warming.

I didn't say the option made sense, I was just explaining how children are generally tied to global warming. For all I know or care, the OP got the option backwards of just plain wrong.

You're probably right. I choose that option anyway.

 

[rokkolpo]

on to 8 i like them.

after that i hate more & more. there are exceptions though.

 

[Toaster Hunter]

Hatred is too mild a word for the contempt I feel for anyone under the age of 10. Stupid child labor laws ruining everything.

 

[SextusMaximus]

Today I was shopping and these kids were running around being little shits so I wondered what other people thought about having children.

PS: That experience has made me not want children for a while

Edit:Shit soz about the double post I accidently hit enter while I was typing. Can a Mod please delete the old thread? Thnx

As long as their parents know how to take care of them.

One thing that annoys me to the highest extent is parents who let their kids roam wild. They have a horrible time and everyone else has a horrible time.

Sorry, personal experience there... ruined my pepperoni and hallepino pizza (freaking beautiful BTW)

 

[Z of the Na'vi]

I worked at a Chuck E Cheese for a year and a half.

What do you think?

 

[FolkLikePanda]

As long as their kind and polite and know their place I'm fine, but cocky ones who think they can take you on and say anything they want and then cry when an unexpected punch in the face happens, those I hate and would put in a concentration camp.

 

[Disaster Button]

I hate most of them and indifferent about the rest. Except y'know, those rare few that are actually kind of cool.

 

[historybuff]

I am not a fan of children. But that's usually because they have worthless parents who do not care enough to keep them in line.

I just personally don't think I would have the patience for children.

 

[brainfreeze215]

I want to have one or two someday, I've worked in a lot of places where I had to be around them a lot, and I don't have any problem with them. They're not usually hard to read.

 

[jthm]

I love kids, but they generally need lube. Then salt and mustard shortly after.

 

[ThreeWords]

Hey, I don't mind children, but poeple say that I'm great with kids, and aparently all the little ones love me.

What can I say? I'm just that good =D

 

[HT_Black]

AGH! PEDO ALERT!

...Sorry, but this was a really, really, really poor choice of thread title.

OT: Err...no, on the whole. More often than not, they're a hinderance and an annoyance. So yeah...
