I really enjoy looking at kids...^_^ I really love taking care of them, talking to them, play along with them, hug them, kiss them, make them smile, laugh, feed them...ect..ect..ect.. I really want to have my own kids but I'm just starting my life... I just graduated from college and I still have a long way to go...so that when I have children of my own, I can give them the best life they Should have... So how do you feel about having kids?^_^

i agree with you..i like to have kids...i enjoy being with them too... but having a child would also mean responsibility, if you think you are responsible to support your baby's needs, then go for it! but as what you have stated, you are still young and a fresh graduate from college. and yes, you have still a long way to go! in order for them to have a best life, then strive hard and plan for the future.

When I was a teenager I worked as a children's nanny in Finland. That was a way to look after and spend time with children without being a parent. At that time I wasn't ready to be mother yet. I really enjoyed teaching the youngest daughter how to speak English. Children start school at 7 years old there and so she had plenty of time for learning at home whilst her older sister and brother were at school. I traveled around the world and had a working holiday visa for Australia. So, again, I worked as a children's nanny. Then I began teacher training when I came home from that trip. I became a primary school teacher. Now I have two sons and I would dearly love to have a daughter. Your time to be a parent will come when you are ready I think. Good luck.

Please, never have any child if you know you are not stable, children need stable parents!

God said go ye into the world, multiply and replenish the earth. Having kids is good if you are of age and it gives joy. It makes you more responsible and serious with whatever you do and they are gift from God.

Oh! Really wonderful to have kids, especially at the age group of 0-4. Kids are really gift from GOD. Yes, I think you can wait for sometime more so that you will become more mature. Anywy GOD will bless you for fullfilling all your dreams. Best of luck

i agree with the idea that children are gifts from God. i will have delivery in one week. and i have given my baby name--Matthew, which means the gift from god. Children do not belong to parents. when we have the children, we have the responsiblity to raise them and share the life with them. while they have their own ideas and life. we want children not only because they are cute. maybe we should face to many different and even difficult situation. they need us to be mature enough. do you prepare for that? both in physical and psychology. stability is just one point. whatever, you must have a warm and young heart. wish you be lucky!

don't be too excited about having kids... enjoy life! Kids can be a handful, they can be fun and cute but they can also throw tantrums, misbehave and cry aloud. I love my kids but there can be times that I just don't know what I'll do with them !
