I don't know how old you are or why you haven't found the right person. But if you want children there is always adoption. There are so many kids who need parents, but it seems like people who adopt want to adopt infants. These older kids need love and family too. You can also check into becoming a foster parent.

I may not be the first to admit that I wonder what life would be like without my wife and kids, how much easier things would be to only have to take care of myself. then i wonder, would i still be alive if it werent for the wife and kids.
I cant say if it a good or a bad thing, all i can say is that i would be awfully lonely without my family. but back to your problem.A child would be easy, have you ever thought of adopting? I believe they do single parents, I could be wrong. As far as looking for ms right, all you can do is look. I wouldnt worry to much about it tho, love has a way of finding you when you arent really looking. So go on with the life you have, love may find you tomorrow.

It is not good or bad it is what you desire. If you donot have children there are many ways to get involved in helping kids throught volunteer or tutoring. Prople do have them for the wrong reasons, it is a lot of responsibilty, but I beleive everything has its good points and bad points and let's not forget absolutely nothing is guranteed. If you donot find a wife don't feel bad about that either, being alone does not equal lonely. There are always new places to explore, things to see. How about reconnecting to old friends , family, again volunteer. Work on personal goals..travel...write.. Children good if you are willing to raise them, not put all your expections in them, and love them ,children bad ...if you don't want them. Life has sooo many unexpected just enjoy one day at a time.

Its a preference. Besides being extremely expensive, it requires self sacrifice, no privacy and you can be taken on 'a wild ride' by them. I dont think most people in this country are qualified to be parents as one can see in the newspapers ;or they have children for the wrong reasons like everyone else who are their friends are having them , orthey want someone to take care of them when they are old but it never works out that way.Then I have seen excellent parenting result in disaster children so its a gamble.
Some persons are natural parents and relaxed in it while others are not. I think if you have a desire, there are many ways to care for children besides having your own. Such as donating to different foundations, foster care, adoption or mentoring. The fact that you had to ask tells me that you wouldnt miss it!

Its not good or bad. If you want children then have them if not then that is your choice as well. Your life depends on you. If you cannot find a wife nothing wrong with that one either. Have fun in life.

Having children is a personal choice my wife and I are married almost 8yrs and chosen not to have kids. If you did want kids when you were younger then well you screwed up big time. But really this day and age with the world going to crap why would you want to bring kids into it.

I think it is a sin to never pass on your own wisdom....As a man, I know we hate to hear this (because it sounds like a cop out), but adoption is a beautiful thing. Raise a child who needs you. I can identify with your situation and believe me, having someone to care for and being able to be a father is more important than anything.
There are so many children in this world who were abandoned by their fathers that they need you to stand up and be a man for them...do your duty.

It is good to have children if you love them and not so good if you don't know what love is. Someone mentioned you could adopt and that is a wonderful thing to do if you understand what it is and know yourself well enough to know if you have the staying power. It is a life long and life saving event to adopt. I have two adopted children and it is a good thing.

If your so picky about a wife why have kids. Hey it depends on the person whether he wants kids to carry on the family name. It doesn't matter what people think or say it's up to the individual.
