This is a complicated question. I hate kids. Multiple. They are loud, dumb. But when there's only one kid, I actually really like interacting with them! It's so much fun to forget who I am for a moment and play games with a kid! I love teaching new things to them and seeing them try them out.
I will only "have" a kid when the conditions are ideal. That being, finacially stable and away from my family. I do not want them to corrupt the kid's mind with their religion bullshit. A partner for me is not neccesary. I also plan on adopting a kid rather than making one. Infant or a kid? I'm uncertain.
My mom said once that if everyone waited until their life was perfect to have a kid, that was the end of humanity. There is never a perfect time.
With all due respect, I disagree. As long as people that are uneducated on sex exist there will always be children born. And there will always be uneducated people around. So we are covered on that.
I think what your mother implies by her words is that no one's life will be perfect. I'm an optimistic person so that is total bullshit to me. What I'm asking for is far from perfection. I really do not think being financially stable/independent and being away from my parents is a lot to ask for.
