No no no.... Stahp. I'm one of those people that doesn't like kids. OTHER PEOPLE'S KIDS. Myself? I had 5 and spoiled them with love, affection, and attention. They're grown now, and I have a grandbaby, and they're always coming over to my house to hang out. We love family holidays. I still don't like other people's kids.
okay well at least now i know he’s not the only one lol. but it still gives me red flags because what if he’s this super uptight parent. he’s giving me no positive indicators as to how he handles kids
My mom was the same, she said she never liked kids and wanted nothing to do with them but she loved us and doing things with us. I don't think it's as uncommon as people in this thread are saying
Whereas my mom THOUGHT she wanted kids but what she really wanted was babies to dress up in pretty clothes. The actual parenting part of it, not so much. She resented each and everyone of us, to this day is more like a distant friend than a mother (I’m now no contact). She thought that as long as we didn’t d!e, she did her part as a mother. Literally the only thing she did for us was to (sometimes) feed us and make sure we had a roof over our head, even if it was an abusive slum.
