I don't mind some children, one in particular I love to death, my God daughter, she is 3 now. There is a 6 year old I think is adorable. But for the most part, I'm with you. They are loud, messy, disrespectful, a pain in the butt. My guy and I are on the fence about wanting kids in the future, because our main problem with kids is that we want to "live our lives" the way we do now, have our freedom. SOME parents, like the mother of my God daughter can manage to have both their freedom and their kids, by raising their kids to live in the freedom with them! But that isn't always easy for everyone's situation.

Another reason I don't particularly like most kids is when you go out and about parents you run into don't like to teach their kids to settle down. I never acted like that in public so I don't like seeing other kids do it. The running around the store crashing into people, etc., it's annoying. And the screaming? It's probably the parents I dislike, but it shows through in the kids.
