I wouldn't worry about the babbling syndrome, if you're both lawyers you are probably cold, harsh, bloodsuckers anyway.
And listen to Adrian, do not become one of those couples that raise pets as if they are children, gah!

At the end of the day politics is just trash compared to the Gospel.
Re: Go forth and multiply
If you do not want a child do not have a child.
Keep your freedom, enjoy it and the time you and your woman have free to yourselves. I've got two kids and all I know is that there is life before kids, and there is life after kids, and one has no relation to the other. Don't get me wrong, I love my kids, I'm just saying that taking care of them year after year really is a big deal and it absolutely changes your entire life. So if you ain't ready for it, don't do it.
"Adopt" a couple of kids in the Foster parents Plan, help out local kids charities. If you've got some cash there are millions of kids who are already alive and desperately need help. You and your wife could be saints and help those kids out. That's no small thing.

Re: Go forth and multiply
I agree with this. Plus the adopted kid doesnt have to be a little baby, could be as old as 7, probaly alot easier then a baby.Originally Posted by Beirut
My advice though is to not have a baby. Seems like your life is already pretty happy.
Re: Go forth and multiply
My advice? Start "experimenting" with the contraception.
Play "condom russian roulette", where you have 6 condoms, one that you've punctured with a needle. Thrown them on the floor, then pick a random one. Similar method with birth control pills.
If a pregnancy occurs, then it occurs. If not, then it doesn't. Stop planning, let nature decide.

Still maintain that crying on the pitch should warrant a 3 match ban
Re: Go forth and multiply
Ya I got a few. Well two. I also have two Moldavian grannies of which one turned out to be dead for quite some time. Ahhh charity organisations.

Prepare to be tired out for the first two years. Also be prepared to be skint for another sixteen on top of that. I won't mention all the mess, vomit,and piss. Oh go on then I will!
On a serious note, don't stop at one. An only child is tantamount to child abuse in my book.

There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.
“Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.”
To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.

Re: Go forth and multiply
Many thanks for the replies, it's good to know our feelings are not unusual. My wife and I are not sure what we'll do yet, and we likely won't know the answer for several years yet, but just talking about it in detail is cathartic.
That's very amusing, because my wife and I are both only children. We love being only children a great deal, and that's one of the main reasons we would only want one child at the most.On a serious note, don't stop at one. An only child is tantamount to child abuse in my book.
Re: Go forth and multiply
I pictured you sitting in your nice Amersfoort apartment writing checks to a dead Moldavian granny. And fell off my chair laughing. Fragony finally decides to do something for mankind: he draws his wallet. And fires a blank.
