I think I'd be a good parent evennnntually.... when I'm good and ready enough to be
truly patient and raise them right (which I have NO doubt I'll be able to raise my
singular child fabulously... living a liberal, gay-friendly, practical yet hippie-style lifestyle, using all the child-raising knowledge I learned from TV

). I'm an only child and I have a theory:
never have more kids than you have hands to hold them... and assuming one hand is holding your god damned overpriced cellphone, you better not have more than one.
I turn 26 in November and I have no desire yet to have a child. I work at a ymca and have kids and babies around me all the time and I'll experience that little moment where I'm like "awwww. It's so cute and waddle-y." and then I remember that it grows up to be that self-important teenage asshole who claims NO responsibility, tries to steal, sneaks in to the building, whines and bitches at me all day, etc..... Yeahhhhh.... I'm gonna pass on parenthood for now. :-/
