Me: "wow, I never want to have kids."

Parents: "WHAT? It's the lost wonderful experience ever!!!"

I am both those parents at all times. Having kids was a terrible idea, caused incredible hardship for my extended family, and I don't recommend anybody do it, ever.

I'd do it again, though. My kids kick ass.

I like kids but when little kids are running around I can't help but think of them more as wild animals than humans. I imagine having a toddler can't be all that different from having a feral pet monkey

They are people in every sense of the word. The tricky bit is learning how to communicate with them
