Ah, the responsibilities and blisses of parenthood.

If or when you become one, how good of a parent do you think you'll be?

[Jeng]

I think I'd be okay, I won't be tooo harsh or tooo nice, I'd discipline them, and get my child in activities and thing's, I want them to have a great life.

[krnxswat]

Are you a teenage mother?

I think I'd be okay, I won't be tooo harsh or tooo nice, I'd discipline them, and get my child in activities and thing's, I want them to have a great life.

I think that's what most of our parents said to themselves as well before they conceives us; and look at most of us now

[Stefanny]

I would spoil my child to death.

LOL, I had an egg project this year. Paired up with a male partner & had to take care of an egg for 2 weeks. It was fun. I hella loved that egg. *cough*

[HakunaMatata]

I would bet anything I will yell too much, be too frugal, and care too little about if my children's haircuts will embarrass them. But I know I will be very involved in my children's education, bring them on vacations I know they'll love, and spoil them every now and then with they're favorite toy. I can really see myself being very similar to my mother.

[think!IMAGINARIL...]

I don't think I'll be such a good parent.
What I want to do is work. I wouldn't really have the time to take care of kids..

I'm ok at taking care of kids. I watched this 3-year-old kid once and I actually fed him, changed his diaper, etc. Kids kinda annoy me. They spit up in your hand a lot, cry too much, scream..

When I have a kid, I'm not gonna spoil him/her because spoiled kids turn out bad. The 3-year-old that I watched was REALLY spoiled and he cried and threw a really loud tantrum every time he didn't get what he wanted.

I'd get my kid(s) active in school, community, and sports. I'd buy nice clothes for him/her. It's not good to be very strict, so I'm only gonna be a little strict.
Hmm, I dunno.

[*My Cinderella.*]

On the count of the fact that I still act like I'm 10...not a very good one. I can't even take care of MYSELF!

[multifaceted]

My aunt (my mom's brother's wife) is an expert on parenting. She helps people with parenting problems.

She says that I would end being a great mom because of how I took care of her children (babies), a 1 and a half year old and 3 month old, when she was at work.

Two babies, 2 of their cousins (who are my second cousins), my little brother, who is 10 but he acts like a 5 year old, all babysat by me.

But I do not want children in the future. I have had enough of them already.

[*WHIMSICAL 0NE*]

I think I'd do okay. My biggest obstacle would be the fact that I would feel like I was losing my independence. I've been through a lot in my life, which I think would contribute to the way I would treat my child. I would do basic things to ensure their safety, hygiene, good values, etc. But I'd also be there for them. I wouldn't be overbearring in an authoritarian way; but I wouldn't want to overindulge my children (hence the good values). I would want them to know what it's like to earn things rather than have them given to them (in a material sense). With my history with my father, I know what not to do.

I would encourage their goals and dreams, but make sure that they accomplished them by themselves. I think it's important to feed and support their creativity and interests. Whether my future child(ren) want to be an astronaut or teacher I'd do all I could to help them achieve that.

I don't mean to sound overly cheesey, but it's hard for me to sum up my thoughts. [I'm too young to be expected to know what to expect, hah] So excuuuuuse me

[angelrevelation]

I think I'd be a bad parent, at least until the kid's like 14. I'm good at advice and listening and things, but that only really comes during the later years.
I'm scared of disciplining babies, and carrying them (I'm sure i'd drop them somehow)... And I hate being silly. And I hate it when little kids get all annoying and screech-y. And when they break things...

I dunno, maybe I'll be more patient when they're actually MY kids.

[smoke]

I'm gonna try to be the best I can be. I really want to be the coolest parent ever, but I know that's not realistic unless you just let kids do whatever they want lol. But I'll be a great one. I know it. I'll be sure of it.

[oXMuhNirvanaXo]

9/10 also

I think I would be a good mother.

Bring on the rope.. ductape... wirecutters... cell phone... car keys... knife...


-cough- can't for get the drugs that I would be on at all times -cough-

[*Intercourse.*]

Well I have a brother thats around 2 and since he was born and brought home me and my sister have taken care of him most. So I think I will be a pretty decent parent. I'm a little tough but I little discipline isn't always a bad thing.

[voguelove]

well, if i were to become a parent now..obviously, id be bad at it.

i dont even think that ill have kids of my own. or even get married. but even if i dont get married, i want to adopt two from china.

i do think that i will be a pretty good mom. i know what i dont like about people and what i do like about people. plus, ive learned a lot from my dad on his ways of how he likes to raise me. even though i definitely dont agree with hardly anything he says, ill still be strict. but, very carefree unless they do something bad.

my theory is, if i did it, youre off the hook. and considering that im 17, i dont drink, smoke, have sex, or really do anything bad, whatever my kids..they'll get bad punishment. but like i said i want to be a do whatever you want but dont get into trouble sort of parent. i plan on being a mom who wants a great relationship with their children and someone that can be in place of a best friend if needed. someone who understands whatever it is that is going on and someone that can help during a troubling event.

[*salcha4u*]

I'm going to spank my kids well. Teach them the discipline I got :)

[jaeman]

I plan to be a single sailor or marine.

But if said situation ever happens, I think I'd be a good one.

[datass]

I think I would be a good mom once the kid reaches the age of 3..

Although I would love to feed the baby milk, and watching the baby grow up :)

[HARDCOREx]

I don't know. I mean my ideas change all of the time. When i was like 10 i planned to spoil my kids like crazy. Now i intend to make them good people, rather than like that girl who was on the news screaming because her parents got her a red car instead of a blue one.

I don't know. I'll be pretty good i'm sure. I like kids a lot. I have plenty of time to consider this, though. (:

[*IVIike*]

i'll be an excellent parent haha i have no idea really
