Deciding Whether to Have Children

If you raise them right they'll let you move in with you as they get older and not go the other route. I'm anticipating the nursing home.
Time to establish the Tinnitus Talk Nursing Home for Childfree Seniors. :cool:
I don't trust the judgement of anyone under 50.
No one under 50 allowed.
 
I didn't find this misogynistic. It's the #1 reason on a long list of reasons why I chose not to have kids. I didn't want to ruin my body, the inside or the outside.
A ruined body is certainly the case but it doesn't always have to be, if a woman maintains herself and her body, then it wouldn't be any different once she has kids. My aunt have had plenty of children yet she still takes time to exercise and eat right. She is still the same size as before.

You might be able to regain your figure, but there's no going back after an episiotomy. :eek:
 
If they're really Trojan-breeders then they could just pretend to not care to get me to sleep with them. That's why I want the visectomt before I start dating (both of which are probably really far off).

@threefirefour very smart of you to recognize the faking thing.

Although vasectomy reversal is expensive

Rather than a reversal just freeze your sperm before the operation. At your younger age you may change your mind in ten years or so.

Only thing worse than a woman who will try to convince you to have kids after marriage is a spermjacker.
 
Almost as disgusting as bringing a child into the world to try to drain a guy of his hard earned money.
To be fair though, if you're gonna be Brad Pitt looks and Bill gates money... Its only fair game. A man can say "no" ya know? If you're gonna be licking your lips and clapping your hands you gotta pay... It takes two to make "a chirren".

What person is going to say no if a millionaire trying to hit that?
 
I would never have kids, why on earth would I want to put anyone through this miserable and pointless experience called life?
 
I would love to be a father, but the responsibilities are so so great, especially these days. I see so many parents that just let their kids scream and act anyway they like. I see kids that scream like crazy in the supermarket and I am usually not the one to carry ear plugs, but these days I carry them.

For me, I think the stress and noise from having a kid would bother my tinnitus, so I kinda hold off on the idea. I have 3 dogs that are older and sick and I am already on alert 24-7, the stress is crazy and can be scary at times. Raising kids can be quite stressful, for right now I pass on the idea of having kids :)

if it's your dream I say go for it... I can already tell youd be a great dad. You're tough as nails and your kids are going to be the last survivors of the apocalypse
 
HI Sally
@Sally,
Please have no fear. In most cases tinnitus can be habituated to and hyperacusis can be completely cured that I assure you. In severe cases hyperacusis will need treatment but it can be cured natually using sound enrichment during the day and at night using a sound machine. Please read my articles: Tinnitus, A Personal View and Hyperacusis, as I see it, in my started threads. If you wish, send me a PM with your email address and I will send you these documents in PDF format for you to print and read which is better. You are new to tinnitus and hyperacusis. They can both get better and I see no reason under these circustances you can't have children...Go for it and I wish you the best of luck. A faint heart never prospers.

All the best
Michael.

If you need any more help please access the posts on my "started threads" or PM me.

Sorry to hijack this thread. Michael, I've been trying to figure out how to contact you outside of this thread, but have had no luck. I'm managing my T, but need help with hyperacusis. Are you able to "start a conversation" with me somehow?

Thanks!
