I'm only 16 years old and about a week ago I started thinking and getting excited for when I have kids. I have been looking at baby stuff too. I don't plan on having a kid till I'm maybe 28. Is this weird I'm thinking about this?
Personally, it's one of the further things from my mind. Considering I'm gay as heck and don't want the responsibility or pain anyway, world's heavily overpopulated so I don't see a point personally. If you figure out you aren't into guys though and decide you might later want to adopt, there's a lot of poor kids in the world whose parents died or flat out abandoned them. I find that to be a very respectable thing to do, but don't know if I have the patience.
Nah, it's not weird. The idea crossed my mind a few times at that age, and it still kinda crosses my mind. I'm leaning more towards adoption if I want children, though, 'cause 1. Birth seems painful 2. Dooon't really have an interest in the process of making a child.
I don't think so, as it being a bad thing. I've gotten this nurturing feeling every now and then about being a parent. It most likely wouldn't be a biological child if I got the chance. I'm not well and I don't think it a stretch that pregnancy would prove extremely unhealthy (and possibly fatal) for me and the foetus. If it happens, it would have to be through adoption (and somewhere in the future). I'm too young, inexperienced, financially unstable, and unwell (etc.) to be able to do this right now.
No, I don't think it's weird at all. It's perfectly natural. You are thinking ahead to what you would like your future to be like.
Lol I'm a guy and I remember thinking about wanting kids when I was 10 years old. I wanted two boys and they were going to be named Nick and Chris. Nick was a boy in my grade that I liked and Chris was a neighbor who was in his 20s at the time and he had a cool truck and I just liked him lol I have not thought about this in years.
It's not weird at all. I know loads of people who became broody at young age, but like you are made the choice to wait until older to start having them. It's a perfectly natural feeling to have.
