Having children

Do you have children?
If you had to choose between your life and your child's who would you pick?
If you picked yourself, how many of your children's lives would equal your life? ie would you die for five of your children but not for three of them.
Do any males here ever wish they could give birth like a female?
Do any females here ever wish they could impregnate another person?

My creampie breeding fetish has metastasized into full blown baby fever lately.
I wonder if it's more than just replicating myself but also a desire to lose some individuality and merge into something bigger like "parenthood".


Edit: one more question.
If there was no taboo or law against infanticide, would you destroy a malformed child to try again for a better one?

This is going to get locked so hard.

No I don't have children.

I have no idea. Have to have a child and see. (For both child vs self life value questions). I always wondered this as a child - would my parents sacrifice themselves for me? Would it be fair to their other children?

No. I don't wish to have the ability to impregnate another female.

Sort of. Millions of them. They're on a paper towel in the bottom of my trash can.

Using pets as a model and employing cognitive empathy, I would have to say mine. I wouldn't want to leave them fatherless for fear they'd end up murdered in the cab of a truck as the eventual result of being traumatized by losing their dad. As someone who has loved many animals, I can understand the bond humans have with their children, and despite the fact that having children of my own does simply not compute, I'm sure the human/child bond is much stronger than the animal/human bond. So I can appreciate the tender love for one's offspring. Still, I believe the limitless sacrality society has for children is based solely on emotion and is far from logical; a ways back there was a thread asking: who would you kill: an old person or a baby? Most people opted for the old person. Arguably, I believe the baby's life is worth much less. Babies have not amassed a lifetime of friends, loved ones, accomplishments (often ongoing) etc. It seems a shame to end a life that has been through and accomplished so much in favor of a blank slate, which is basically what babies are, no matter how cute or helpless they may be. Also, if you're ecologically minded, the baby would be the obvious choice.

If you picked yourself, how many of your children's lives would equal your life? ie would you die for five of your children but not for three of them.

Is there an app in which this can be calculated?

Do any males here ever wish they could give birth like a female?

After a big meal of Italian food, I kind of often do.

Define malformed. If it can dance for coins, I'd keep it.

I might destroy a malformed child to protect my own, but not to have my own.

No one in this thread should be having children.

Muh babies will be beautiful thank you very much.
I'm fabulous.

No one if this forum should be having kids. I have kids, who are mostly grown now, and I've always patted myself on the back for my ability to do well by them.

However, they've recounted stories of how there have been times when they've been terrified; not because I've tried to scare them but because I failed to recognise what can scare people, let alone kids.

I don't think this condition makes someone a particularly good parent.

Look, fair enough. I believe the act of imposing life on another being should be highly restricted, if not out right criminal in some cases. I don't see it as a human right. It's like driving a car, you shouldn't do it unless you know exactly what the f#ck you're doing. And a car crash is miniscule compared to the potential f#ck-ups involved in the generic lottery, and potential for suffering.

I have a kid. Too young to tell how my condition has affected them.

Just make no assumptions.

Yes, I have a kid (who is an adult now).
I would choose my life over hers because I place more value on my own life.
I wouldn't die for any kid, my own or anyone else's. With that said, I would probably risk my life for my daughter if I thought there was a good chance I wouldn't die trying to save her.
I have no desire to impregnate anyone. You gotta be crazy to actually want children.
I believe all deformed babies should be killed at or before birth, and by 'deformed' I mean serious mental or physical defect. There's already too much weakness in humanity.
