I find I'm very good with children, so Yes I like them. Though I don't want any of my own until my wife and I are financially stable.

I have two, they are truly incredible and would do anything for them. I am also a fan of other babies/kids, love being around them, guess it makes me feel young again!

They exist, which is good, so we won't have to go through the scenario depicted in "Children of Men" the movie.

I love babies - as long as I can hand them back to their parent when I've had enough.
Don't want my own.

I cannot stand children. The little humans are small, fragile, not very interesting, they leak, they make wretched high pitch wails frequently, they smell bad...

I can tolerate and possibly even enjoy them over the age of six for exactly frty-five minutes then need at least a fifteen minute break, then I am good for another forty-five minutes before I need a half hour break. Repeat, then run away.

But give me a teenager any day of the week, I'll turn them into a whole new and responsible and mature young adult who respects those around them. Teenagers???? Now THEY are interesting!!!!

I am always afraid of hurting them. As the youngest child, even in my extended family, I never got comfortable with them. I wouldn't even consider one of my own for a decade.

I love babies! I can't wait to have my own, but I'm thinking only ONE will be enough.

Oh, OK. I misunderstood.

Teenagers and tweens.... [shudder] Try living with one full time.

I do love teens and pre-teens, I have to. But, more miserable creatures have never inhabited the earth. They have fully discovered their free will and want to use the word "NO!" more than most two year olds and will argue about what color the sky is is (and how wrong, you, as an adult are) given a chance. Yeesh.

Babies are sweet and loving and usually agreeable (yeah, they cry, but that's how they communicate) and soft and wispy and lovely. Teens and tweens are... whatever the opposite of all that is.

Eh, I like my baby nephew a lot (same for my 3 year-old nephew when he was a baby), and they're kind of cute in general, but on the whole I'm not crazy about them.

I always get confused when people look at a baby under one year old and coo about how he looks like one parent or the other. All I see is a generic baby. They all look roughly the same to me. Then there's that strange scent they have to their skin that so many people love, while I find it slightly unpleasant. Not to mention things like crying and dealing with diapers (which I can do, but I'd rather not).

Can you tell I don't want any of my own?

LOL!!! Deal. I'll take all your teenagers, and you take all the little humans I have to deal with.

What is a "tween"?

Teenagers... well I just love that challenge of bending them to my will. And they help to improve my patience!!!! Yes, it is a selfish thing of mine dealing with teenagers!!!

Everybody wants you to hold their baby... and I just don't know what to do with them. Sure, they help continue the species... but they're just smelly, screaming, spitting, drooling poop monsters that I don't really care for. I'm sure I'd change my mind if I had one of my own, as people have told me... but meh, I don't care for 'em.

I chose other because I'm weird. I love, love, love our babies. The only baby we have now though is 2 and she's precious! However, I'm not the kind of person that loves all babies. Lol. I don't think every baby is cute and I'm not the kind of person to drool over any baby I see. Pretty much I love our babies, but I'm not a huge baby person with other's. Lol.

Also, I talk about our kids some, but try to keep it to a minimum. The truth is, not everybody wants to see all your baby photos and your FB friends usually don't want to hear every time your baby smiled or pooped. Yes, I've had FB friends who share these things!

I'm good with our kids and my neices because I've raised my nephews. I can relate to ours so well mostly because I'm still pretty young and a playful person. I enjoy playing with our 12 year old some and that's one reason we have a closer relationship.

They are cute and such, but I never felt like I wanted to "pet" any of them... Guess am just fine without rushing to grab them, I don't say they are yucky just not my thing... I find them very cute, but never cared about them... (Would LOVE THE HELL OUT of mine if I ever had any... ^^)

I adore them in a maternal, non-pedobear way, I hope that someday I'll get to be a mommy actually. ^_^

I honestly don't like them. People can keep their kids away from me and my stuff and I'd be happier for it.

They drool, barf, poop, pee - often on their cartakers or anyone who's having to deal with it. They also get crumbs everywhere, cry ( I hate the sound of crying children ) and can't take care of themselves like practically every other living creature on the planet CAN do. Blugh.

They also smell bad most of the time and stare at me in this really creepy manner.

No thanks.
