Not at all Iyad, but I have to say I hope you have a change of heart someday. The more liberty babies born, the better, in my opinion.

"Your mother's dead, before long I'll be dead, and you...and your brother and your sister and all of her children, all of us dead, all of us..rotting in the ground. It's the family name that lives on. It's all that lives on. Not your personal glory, not your honor, but family." - Tywin Lannister
I have a 2 year old, and another on the way, and want more after that! I disagree with everything above!
Yes there are problems, and nothing is perfect. However the reward of watching the little one develop into a functioning human being is so very rewarding. The bonding that happens as a family unit is irreplaceable and I would have a hole in my life if it wasn't for it.
Basically I cannot imagine never having kids myself.
Also, I strongly and vehemently do not think that (on the whole) kids raised in supportive loving families are a burden on the world. These will be the future people to shoulder to burden and bring greater prosperity and comfort to others less fortunate. This is true regardless of the economic systems involved.
However, I do not criticize or condemn in anyway those who do not want children. I personally could not imagine it for myself, but I also understand that others cannot imagine that my way of life brings me great joy. Cest la vie!

Well, you do live in Dubai. I wouldn't want my kid growing up next to the HQ of Halliburton either. Maybe its the fact that you are surrounded by satanic forces and buildings constructed from slave labor and blood money that your heart doesn't want to place a child next to that.Originally Posted by ibaghdadi

I begin with the principle that all men are bores. Surely no one will prove himself so great a bore as to contradict me in this. - Soren Kierkegaard
If Dubai is anything like the U.S., you are wise not to want children. The state uses them to stick it's nose into your privacy. Once you have children, they believe it is their function to make sure you are taking care of them up to their standards. Of course their standards may not match your own and this is what causes the rub.
A set of arbitrary standards set by the state may not be to your liking and perhaps below your standards and thus your children become children of the state and you have no control over their upbringing.
Those who are considering having children, need to remember, what you think are your children are in fact not your children but instead belong to the state and you are just feeding and paying for them to grow into good little taxpayers.
If I end up never having kids I'll be pretty disappointed. I've always wanted a family of my own. I'd like to have my first kid by the time I'm 26, and have at least one more later on.
If I have a boy, I can't wait to do the same things I did with my dad. Playing catch, throwing the football around, shooting BB guns in the backyard, going to pro baseball games, etc.
If I have a girl, I can't wait to fight off all of the teenage boys wanting to get in her pants

Those Who Do Not Move, Do Not Notice Their Chains.
Wow, is that in the Bible?
page 9
Those Who Do Not Move, Do Not Notice Their Chains.
Ehh... I have a lot of Bibles, but none of them have page numbers. Care to site the book, chapter and verse?
