Children is a long-term responsibility given to parents. We receive the status of being parents forever. And with this status we consequently receive new chores, new schedule, new eating habits, new life. So, why, despite the growing "Child-free community", people still want to have kids?
Women are physically and mentally created to love, to care, to keep the life cycle going. While men are more up to security, safety, provision. A union of both guarantees the immortality of humanity. Kids is a new step in family relationships. They bring joy and happiness as well as misunderstanding and troubles. However, there is a reason for having one.
Children is the fixing point in any family. They unite their parents` forces on the way to finding the sense of living. They are also perfect motivators to try new things and make our childish dreams come true! Though sceptics would mention all the problems associated with upbringing from allergies to transitional age.
To cut the long story short, having or not having children is your individual choice. I have made mine!
