How many of you out there have children?

[Tranceformers]

How many of you do? I have one, and I'm a 18 year old male, soon to be 19.

I just want to know how many of you have kids, and how do you guys manage to find time to be online for such long amounts of time, or short amount of time. Right now I'm at my fathers house using the computer because I'm waiting for my girlfriend (mother of son) to finish school.

Let me know!

 

[tkim]

nope not me...maybe in the next 6 yrs.

 

[Scrapster]

The day I have kids is the day I give up posting on anandtech.
(hopefully sooner)

 

[Harrald]

2 kids. One of each. And as for posting. I post from work and while we watch TV or read. We're a family of neffers

 

[hpkeeper]

not me. Happily without kids at 17

Somebody set us up the sperm

All your children are belong to us

 

[solost]

That is a good question, I know quite a few people with kids that spend more time on the internet than they should, the only reason they get off is to make the kids something to eat, or if the kids start fighting. I am certainly not saying everyone is like that, but I am sure everyone knows someone that is.

What are you doing having kids when you're 18?

 

[XFactor007]

nope

 

[Tranceformers]

Sh*t happens.

It was meant to be. Accidents don't happen!

 

[PretendHer]

Got two of my own and two step. Ages, 22, 20, 14 & 13.

Since only two of mine are at home now - and, they aren't little anymore - I have plenty of time to do the things I enjoy.

Hang in there, they DO get older and more self-sufficient. But, they also get a real attitude with age too. Gotta love 'em though.

Tranceformers, if you don't mind me asking, how old is your child and how old is the mother?

 

[Bignate603]

I'm 17 and still consider myself a kid, i couldn't deal with one.

 

[veryape]

Hell no! I'm still uncertain about why my parents would bring me into this cruel world. Not that my life is that bad,I am pretty happy but I still don't feel that at this point it would benefit my fiancee,a child or myself,at least just not right now.

Kids are great though and maybe one day,who knows...

I have three happy accidents.... wasn't trying to have 'em, but didn't mind them joining the party.

I never sit at the computer for very long during the day but I do pop in from time to time as a 'break'. We have cable modem so it's not a hassle to access the Internet. It's just always 'on' and I can stop in for a moment at any time during the day.

I am the homeroom mom for my second grader's class, I take my toddler to Toddler Time at the library every week, and I homeschool my oldest.

What I don't do is go out to eat, go to movies, or socialize in general. I also watch very little TV. I don't count my volunteer work as socializing, so you guys are it!

I do work from home (as a writer for another website) and need to write about 1-2 hours a day to keep up with my assignments, and I usually do this late at night.

I see this as a good way to keep my communication skills sharp. It's not for everyone, but it works for me.

I may spawn some accidental offspring this spring break in the Bahamas.

 

[hzl eyed grl]

I have children...Nestled somewhere in my ovaries. :Q

 

[The Stigenator]

nope.. no children yet. Still a virgin.

 

[bonk102]

none here yet, hell, i dont even have a gf

 

[billandopus]

me: one, 8.5 mos

it's a handful to be a parent much of the time but it's wonderful as well. There's nothing like looking right at your kid and him/her looking right back at you with innocent eyes and you knowing that you are the father/mother. You created this being. Amazing.

 

[NetworkDad]

1 kid, will be 4 next month

 

[Daedalus]

1 boy, who will be 6 mos 3/11

 

[Moz]

No go here yet

 

[purplehayes]

3 kids ages 15, almost 14 and 10. The two teenagers are a real handful right now, but sometimes they let the real them slip out and I know that it's all worth it.

Somebody set us up the sperm

Buwahahaha!!! No, that joke is NOT dead!
