Um... I just went to the person's profile and did the "view all posts" thing (Mainly do satisfy my curiosity), and I don't really see any of that.

Waiting may make you sad now, but it will be well worth it to both you and your future baby or babies.

Want want want...

Sorry - I'm not having a go at you, coppelia, I just genuinely do not understand why someone would possibly want a baby. The desire to give birth to or 'raise' a child of one's own (or adopt one) is something I have never experienced and fail to understand.

I've recently wanted a baby too, but I know that it's hard work, not to mention a complete lifestyle change. I'll wait another ten years. Might be a good thing to find a man that actually wants a baby too.

Babies can be fun, but not all the time. They sure aren't perfect and sweet.

They cry all hours of the day and night, they throw up a lot, they make really smelly diapers, you have to take care of them 24-7, and not just as babies, because they grow to be children, then teens.

You have to be able to afford to feed and cloth them. If you want help from the government over this, expect to stand in line for five hours with a screaming dirty diapered baby in your arms.

Expect to get all your favorite things torn or broken, by the time the baby becomes a toddler.

Expect your favorite outfits to all be ruined by having them thrown up on, wet upon, and food stains all over them.

Expect to have to take your baby to the clinic on a regular basis for shots, colds, and regular growth check ups. Expect the clinic line to be just as long if not longer then the line you stood in for food.

How are you going to support yourself and your baby? If you get a job, how are you going to afford daycare, if you get the government to pay for day care, what if your baby is sick, then you have to take off work, not to mention you are already getting paid crap for not finishing high school. How are you going to pay your bills that your baby is sick and you are out of work?

A baby is not easy. Do yourself a favor and grow up first, get a kitten, it's easier!

Makes you wonder what the point is on a personal level.

Thanks... I personally have Aspergers Syndrome was diagnosed with it when I was 9. You obviously have no idea of the struggles that I have been through in my life. So could you please keep all your opinions to yourself as you dont know me at all.

I agree but each to their own I guess.

It's like how my dad dosen't like Bentleys!

I feel the same way. I'm not a very responsible person; maybe that's why :?
