Nah, we don't have any germy slobbery hairy messes or poop to shovel. Dr bills yes, but no poop to shovel. And my kid doesn't smell bad or shed. I'd much rather clean up toy messes than hairy slobber messes. Plus he can look up at me with his big brown eyes and say "wuuuuv you momma". Yesterday he started saying "yee haw" after everything and then laughing at how funny he thinks he is. Can a dog do that? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Mike, you're my kind of guy.
I live on a 10 acre farm with 5 horses, have two dogs and a cat that have the run of the house. If I'm not out mending the fence, mowing, or weed eating, it doesn't get done.
I've been slobbered on, gotten hair (horse and dog) covering every inch of me (ever body clip a horse? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif ), had to clean up accidents in the house and clean stalls on a twice-daily basis, called the vet out for a colicking horse at 2am, been stepped on, bitten, kicked, crushed in a trailer, you name it.
And I can't fathom having a kid. *shudder*
You want to talk about messed up.... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

You have kids Mike? I assume not. If not, then you have no idea what you're missing. And, since you don't even know what you're missing, how can you determine you feelings of having children of your own? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif Trust me man, there is nothing that can describe what one feels when you have a child of your own. Besides, it's not about YOU anymore, it's about the child. That's the whole point, and it's one of the most amazing experiences in life. You have no idea Mike. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif

I have definately been bitten, stepped on, but never kicked - that is no fun!!
Right now, my horse is all taken care of (had an easy day today), my dog is lying (while drouling) on my bed - and everyone knows with fall all the animals are producing lots of hair - so definately hair everywhere.
About poo - not that it bothers me - my gardner picks up after my dog, and my groom does that for my horses!

Finding a babysitter before you go party.
Bad dreams in the middle of the night.
Being forced to watch horrible plays and recitals and then having to lie and say that they were terrific.
Giving up precious beer money in order to budget for braces, broken arms, medicine and school trips.
If you get a "talented" child, you can also add on money for summer college camps and other wonderful, EXPENSIVE trips....

My disclaimer : I do enjoy being a parent. I don't regret having children.
That being said, it's not the defining accomplishment in my life. It's a very cool accomplishment - one of the greatest. However, you can't tell if you're a successful parent until they've moved out and went on their own. That pretty much sums it up.... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I love our kids, but there is life beyond the parenting thing. I think if you want them...great. If you don't... don't have them. All will be well for everyone. Motherhood doesn't define who I am . It is a part of who I am. I am lots of things. I am very glad to be a mom, but that makes me no better than anyone who doesn't have chldren.

honestly, I still have those same issues... I have a body pillow and 3 cats to keep me company - but I sure would like a dog that could give me a little more protective sense... we have lots of windows in the house and sometimes, that freaks me out too...but after a while, you get used to it.. and before you know it, your the one that changes the lightbulbs, calls the garagedoor repairman and is the fixer-uper for the home etc....
usually the first night doug's gone, i have a hard time sleeping and will sometimes sleep with the lights on - lately, i've been working so hard that i'm "out" by the time I turn on my "sleep music" and my head hits the pillow...
