Siblings, especially younger one, are fucking annoying as hell. Only childs are lucky as hell.
My room gets pretty much invaded on a daily basis by my little sister, who is turning 4 this year in August. No privacy at all, except when she is sleeping. And my parents tell me "Stop staying up so late!" What choice do I have if it's when I get the only peace and quiet. I'm never having children. Unless I'm retired, condom stays on. Children are obnoxious, and annoying, no matter how much you love them. They require a lot of time and commitment. Eventually you get so exhausted, that you get mean, and when you get mean you feel guilty, and even worse.

"Aww she's so cute." Yea fuck off, you don't have to live with her on a day to day basis. You get to come over once in a while and experience the good part of children, have your aww's and leave.


How are parents in today's world suppose to take care of their kids? I don't get it. They're so fucking expensive. The dad has to go to work. He comes home and he's exhausted. To support the family, the mom probably needs to do some work too, not to mention cooking and cleaning... how will you send your kid to college? How will you even send your kid to pre-school if its like 1800 per month? Where do you get the time to teach and play with your kid if both parents need to make money? Kindergarden starts at around 5, thats 5 years you have to fill in before you get some time off.

My sister has seen movies like Shrek, Monsters Inc, probably 20 times each. Imagine if my parents didn't have me to provide "relief."



If I ever get married, I'm not even going to contemplate the idea of kids unless I'm rolling in dough and planning an early retirement. If you're thinking about having kids before you hit 40, you're a fool in my book. Having children should be the second meaning of slavery.

OMFG. Brooke is gonna go apeshit when she sees this. We don;t want kids for the same reason.

And younger siblings are the WORST. Mine are both MUCH fatter than me (youngest is 200 lbs, middle child is 310 lbs, I am a mere 170ish lbs). So they htink they can push me around. Thank God they can't fight for shit. xD

Either way, I would like to have kids later on in life, but no time in the near future. And my child will be so well disciplined. If not, I'll beat him. If he still does not get the picture, I'll sell him in China, and buy an asian kid. I think they are smarter or something.

I don't agree with this tongue.gif. Only children are very lonely. Though I agree that when you are up late, that is the only time you are able to get peace and quiet. What I suggest is just retire to a part of the house for some time when you need quiet time. Your parents will understand. Also keep open communication between you and your parents. That is most important smile.gif.

But I love kids biggrin.gif. I love playing with them biggrin.gif.

I understand what you mean and I completely know and agree with what you are going through as I have two younger siblings myself (a brother age 7, and sister age 2).

But the difference is that I do like kids and I definitely want to have one or two when I'm married. I think it's worth the trouble, the kicking and screaming, everything when they kiss you and tell you they love you. tongue.gif

I have a twin, so I really don't complain about HAVING a sibling, because it really can be good sometimes... it's just the lack of privacy that gets on my nerves.

What the fuck? Did you even read my post Kitsune? Where did I complain about my parents not paying for college and blame it on my sister?

Alex, how do you know you weren't like that when you were a kid? I'm sure no one said, "aww he's so cute" but maybe you were just as "annoying" tongue.gif

I think my mom once told me I was a quiet kid, but I'm sure I had my bad moments too. I wasn't trying to single out my little sister, or trying to praise myself. Simply discussing the nature of kids and having them.

You know whats not fair? ohmy.gif

Since i'm the oldst my mom and dad like expect me to do everything, so when they come from wrok and stuff my brothers and sisters fuck up the house and since there smaller then me and won't listen to me, they blame the house being a mess on me then I have to clean it.

Yeah and kids do suck sometimes though, they always see stuff there way. >.>

Actually I got that from implication.

Nice of you to assume so many things rolleyes.gif
I was talking about the difficulty of raising a child, expenses being one of them.

Working vs spending time with your kids is what I was discussing.
And I take great care of my little sister. I often babysit and feed her. Play and read with her.

You're quite the Freud Kitsune...

Firstly, many truths can be assumed. Just because I got what I did from what you said by implication, doesn't make it less true.

You'll make a great lawyer. The sophistry is strong with this one.

I think you're wrong. Children are the best thing that could ever happen to you man - the feeling you get when you find out that it's finally happened is better than any euphoria you've ever felt in the past. The undying and unconditional love you automatically have for your child is just something you can never understand until you've had one... YOU'LL UNDERSTAND WHEN YOU'RE OLDER HEH

I'm sorry Alex but I'm going with Kitsune. Children are a blessing. I've had to deal with them too. Hell I've taught a classroom full of them -hyperactive at that- and I want to work with them my whole entire life through good and through bad. You were once a child too quiet or not and I bet you someone felt the same way about you that you are about your sister. And only children are not lucky. I have no idea where the hell I would be without my sister and I doubt she knows where she would be without me. I was the first person she told about her being pregnant. She has always been someone I can go to for help. She even probably scarred me for life when I was a kid by forcing me to see things that were well beyond my years and possibly caused me to need therapy later when I started acting like her but I forgive her and that doesn't matter because she's my SISTER.

Stop being so closeminded to not see past everything bad about it. My sister fought constantly with me and we had full on fist fights. She still has scars from me biting her or scratching her. She probably hated me then too. But you know what I love her anyways and she loves me. Maybe some day you will have that relationship too and realize how lucky you are that you even have a healthy relationship with your sister. I mean christ... I know someone who was sexually abused by their sister. If being annoyed is the most trouble you have with your sister then you are really fucking lucky.

As far as the amount of time goes... first of all if you're paying 1800 a month for preschool you really need to find a cheaper one because that is horrid. Mine was $35 per week for daycare or something of the sort. Secondly you have weekends to spend with your child and if you're a good parent you will want to spend as much time as you possibly can because that child is yours. He or she is your world. You'll understand when you're older and paternal instincts kick in wink.gif My parents both worked really long hours. My mom at one time was literally gone on business trips 65% of the time. My dad was always at the office but they both did their best to raise my sister and I well because they love us and care. Everything they did they mostly did for us. Just like your parents did the same for you and are doing for your little sister.

You go to school, set goals, and acheive them. You take out loans to go to college for yourself so that you can get a decent job. You work two jobs if you have to.

I am a stay at home mother to four children. My oldest is 6, my youngest is 3 months. My husband works 16 hours a day but is home every night and every weekend. I put in quality time with my children 24 hours a day. Its my job. My kids may not have every game system under the sun but they have lots of toys to keep them entertained, books to learn from, food on the table. When it comes time for their college we will do what we can to help them, but they may well have to take out loans on their own just as we did. Hopefully they will be great students and will earn themselves some scholarships, but thats not anything we can bank on.

I grew up as one of eight children. I learned tolerance as a result. I learned to share, to work, to carry my own weight. These are not bad things to learn.

Sorry your younger siblings annoy you. I can tell you that as a parents kids are not always a walk in the park. Their are very needy little creatures, and its my understanding that they remain needy selfish little creatures till they grow up and get out on their own wink.gif
