My reason for haveing children id simply for my love of children. For as long as I can remember I have always wanted children, even as a young girl I would think about it and have all different names in my head. When I was older and started dating I would always wonder how would my children turn out if this guy or that guy was the father.
Finally when I was 22 I had my first child my husband and I named him Zackaria William and I was so excited to finally have him here, we loved him nurtured him just like I always new I would, he is 11 now and very well behaved and very responsible just like his mom, lol. When I was 27 I had my second child another boy Michael Anthony, he was a little more demanding then his older brother but still the appleof our eye just liek his brother.
We felt our life was complete 2 great boys who are very well behaved never gave us a problem, as time went on how ever we feld somethign was missing something was not quite right and my husband new what it was he needed daddies girl, in March of 2005 his wish came true and now we have a complete famiy and Natalie Lynn is her name.
Children are a very important part of your life and you have to be sure that you want to be truly commited to them until they are old enough to doit on there own. My children give me a sence of purpose and a sence of accomplishment, soemthing I have to live for and proof to show that my life ment something at least for a little while.
I never do anthing great in my life I know that are going to be 3 great people in this world because of me who may one day actually be some thing great to many people
Hope this answered your question

I think it is a biological urge. I had really strong urges to have a child when I was 18, 25, and 32. I mean I wanted to have a child like a junkie needs a fix. It was beyond my understanding. It had to have been biological.
I had given up on having a child and, though I thought about adopting, I wasn't in that place where I "needed" one. Then I got pregnant. We're very happy about it, and now I experience biological responses. For example, I instinctively do things to protect this pregnancy and make sure I carry this child to term. The drive to protect my baby is bigger than me. It has to be biological.

Lived at home until 19, lived single until 32, married 3 years, ready for a new experience. Life is about change. There is nothing that can produce more of a change in your life than a child. I know I now have 2.

Well, women were created to procreate. Now-a-days life is expensive and procreation is less than before that they used to have 8 or 10 children.
One of the reasons of having a child is to keep the generation going. To have someone to love and to receive the same love back, without being hypocrite. I did not planned having my children but I do not regret them. They are the most wonderful thing ever to happen to me. May God bless them always.

Leaving a mark, a legacy. Having a family to love, a mind to teach and lead and to have companionship and love through old age and a tie to the future.

My husband and I planned our son after we married for several reasons. My husband is adopted, so our son is his first "blood" relative that he knows. Second, mother hood to me is something phenomenal. I couldn't wait. My son has become my world. I'm glad that I made the decision to have him because I wanted him. He has made our life complete!
Plus no matter what happens, my husband and I will always be reminded of the good times we've had when we look at our son. Parental love is unconditional and such a good experience! (Even in the terrible twos!)

Most people have a child to pass on their gene. Beside, would you want to have your own family? by having a child, you are creating a new family, a family of your own. People with kids will knows how their parent feel as a parent. We can be more responsible, and life is boring without people around. We want company.

well having a child means big responsibility , but think about how much fun that you can have with a child. sometimes a child can teach you things just like the saying"the teacher becomes the student and the student becomes the teacher"

To be honest when I fell pregnant to my daughter it was a mistake. No regrets I'm happy to say! My boyfriend stuck by me and I love my baby girl so much, we are a happy little family :)
When I have my next child it will be because my daughter has brought so much happiness into my life and I can't wait to have another!
