I wasn’t sure I wanted a child for most of my adult life. Now that my daughter is almost 7, I often think about how I could have been so close minded and ignorant to how awesome having a child is. She is my best friend, and I wouldn’t want to think about life without her. But the thing is, you don’t know this feeling before having children, it’s just one of those things you have to experience: you can’t verbally explain it to someone. If you have the means and you aren’t a total lunatic, most people will not regret the decision in the long run. I sometimes do regret not having more children.

Adding another reply. I've loved all 3 of my kids since before they were born but this season at LSU Florida my 7 year old screams "single high safety, take a shot!". He got so many high fives and compliments. That shite was so worth it.
Just never know what they’ll say.
Your boy is awesome.

Nah, but the grandkids are awesome!

Hardest and most rewarding thing I have ever done.
3 and 1 year old, I'm in the trenches right now. You learn a lot about yourself when you become a parent.
And yes, it's worth it. It's a blessing and the emotions are indescribable.

Is having kids worth it?
Kids are what makes life "worth it"

First, no matter what anyone tells you, no one is ever “ready” to have a kid. They change your life in ways that you can’t imagine. That’s not to say that it’s bad, just unexpected.
Second, there’s always the possibility of a negative outcome. Many parents no longer have lines of communication with their kids. If you want them, don’t let this stop you.
Third, your lifestyle will change forever. The “adult” things that you and your spouse enjoy doing will disappear for a while. Some may never come back,
Finally, they will give you some of the best moments of your life, times that make life worth living.
You can have a great life without kids. But if you decide now that it is not right for you, think about those reasons when your clock starts ticking.

That’s a lazy response and opinion

It’t really difficult for me to understand why people wouldn’t want kids. They’re part of the whole picture of life. Yes, kids are 100% worth it.

What else is more worth it??? Stuff?
It's the best.
It's the best.

Worthy of what? All the money in the world can’t replace them.

For me it was 100% worth it. I love my son more than anyone in the world. He is the best and has added so much to my life.

Just ask your mom and dad. And tell them to be honest cause they may something that will hurt your feelings. And if you're a democrat, we wouldn't want that to happen, would we?

Yes, having children is worth the pain, especially when you’re rewarded with grandchildren. It’s like winning the life lottery.
