I personally still can't figure out the use of kids apart from 'nice to have' ...... for most people. I most likely will have a kid come 2011 but only because the wife-to-be is getting really broody now and there is really no reason why we shouldn't. I just pray it's a girl as I cannot stand little boys crying, making a racket and generally being a sissy until he man up. Perhaps my experience comes from my girlfriend's brother and his little boy being such a useless little shit that makes fucking noise, burst out in tears if he don't get his way, isn't even remotely likeable and generally just being a fucking oxygen thief. Unlike the gays here on Getbig, I've not met a little boy that's remotely likeable hence me praying for a girl.
