to me, children make you smile
they keep you in a young frame of mind, you do not have to act professional around them
i enjoy to watch them leaen things and to teach them
their continuous happiness keeps you happy
you can also learn from your children, they are not afraid of failure usual and watching them, you can learn to set your mind free and go for your dreams
on your worst days, your children are the ones that have that special ability to emediately cheer you up
they give you a reason to endure the pressures of the world and make it back home

Personally I don't want children but I do enjoy being around them sometimes. The other day I was driving behind a schoolbus & all the kids at the back were excitedly waving at me. I waved back & smiled. I admire their sense of wonder, their enthusiasm for the little things, their laughter. We lose a lot of that as we grow up. Maybe being around kids keeps us young.
I love my neice. It's fascinating watching her grow into a young lady, but I don't think I could have one of my own!
I just can't imagine having children myself. My songs & paintings are my babies. Creativity is what I bring into the world. I've never felt the need to have kids. I find the idea overwhelming actually! It's not for me! It's an enormous responsibility & you'd have to be 100% sure.

Your kids tend to love you even if no one else does no matter what your faults are. They are fun, mostly, too. It's kind of like having a pet that talks. They shame you and make you proud. They test you and help you. They anger you and make you happy. They annoy you and comfort you. They give you hugs and vomit. They make you laugh and make you sad. It's the human experienced all rolled up into one little ball of mischief and pleasure.

All the reasons given are true and valid! The common reason is that they are yet to adorn themselves with a 'personality' that would restrict them from manifesting their inner innocence ! This innocence is what attracts people to children, and also, this innocence enables children to fully experience the pristine emotions that the situation evokes in them.

I think its because you can be yourself with kids, they are less judgmental then adults. My children make me so happy. at the same time they can also frustrate the hell out of me, but that's what being a parent is all about.

I think it is instinctual, and if I can say, more among women than men, but we men have a different connection with kids. I really love my sons--kids can be naughty, yet you can quickly forget when they turn around and charm themselves back into your life.

i want children, so that they can carry my genes to there children, so that i may take care of them and love them until the da i die, so that i can finally teach someone how to behave without feeling rude, so that when they fall i can pick them up and hug them and worry because the knee they just scrapped may get infected... so i can prove how much i love my husband... and finally... so i can show my mother, how to show love to ur children...
