LOL
Grasshopper I actually do believe in part that often the people who probably should have kids the least, i.e. the ones who let them run amuck and who do not bother to teach them and mold them in any good manner, tend to have the most. I think we have an over population problem.
I used to also not like kids much. I still have low tolerance for babies and toddlers, but that is more MY problem than theirs. Of course people need to procreate for the world to continue, and I have learned my problem with kids is more my own issue as I lack patience and I am not a nurturer by nature. These days I actually am much better with that, and I have no problems with them (just don't leave them at my door to babysit lol).
Here is a little exercise...since you have really decided you do not like kids at all and would rather they are not around, perhaps ask yourself what is it inside of you that is invoking the feelings? Not trying to get all psychomumbojumbo on ya, but wondering what is causing this severe dislike of kids. Do you know really where this is coming from? You were once a kid, right? You would not have wanted an adult to hate you just because you were a kid, right? That is the time of our lives we are the most innocent and things in the world seem the most magical, I would bet most of us would never have not wanted to experience our lives without being able to see it thru the eyes of a child.
You know I love ya, and I ask these questions out of curiosity, not condemnation. I also ask because I finally realized my own problem with kids was more issues inside myself than with the children themselves.
I still say your problem sounds more like it lies with improper parenting, and lazy parenting, then kids themselves. The fact that kids are more out of control today - is that really an issue with the KIDS? Or an issue with their parents? I would say it is the latter, not the former. I think your anger is directed at the wrong party.
Maybe I am rambling and not making a bit of sense. It's ok, won't be the first time.
