I knocked up my baby mama with twins when I was 43. Better keep that thing holstered if you want to keep sleeping in on the weekends.

Confused on why you got so many downvotes

That's about my age and I'm still packing a loaded one although I don't think my wife can have kids anymore. I don't want to start over. We are 4-5 years away from being empty nesters and too old for small kids now.

This morning we had the privilege of waking up at 6am. As I walked into the living room to sit and watch Disney junior before my wife and In laws woke up our little boy noticed Elmo in the foyer and new Santa had come. It was truly magical this morning, our son will be 2 soon and was adopted at birth. No one else except the doctors held him.
There at many wonderful adoption agencies out there.
We never met our sons birth mom,
We struggled with infertility and had to make a choice to continue with treatment , adopt, or it just be us. Infertility treatments if not successful we would not have the financial means to adopt .
If there is anyone out there who is struggling with this decision or had questions, I would be more than happy to discuss. We’ve been there. Merry Christmas everyone!

Christmas is what you make it. I don't have kids and mine is going great. If you resign yourself to being miserable, you will be.

Sorry for your divorce OP

Before our daughter got here we had nieces and a nephew.
Our 11 got our old asses up at 7am this morning but it was worth it to watch her face.
There's a big difference between your own kid and your nieces/nephews.

I’m sorry you don’t have any children to celebrate with - but you have to make the best of it.
My sister can’t have any and I have six - how is that fair??
But she’s a great aunt and the spoiling she does is appreciated.

It works out. Guys like yoiu should definitely NOT have children. Do the world that favor.

You might not believe it, but one day this will be a decision you regret.

Well he only has 3 things:
1. His lame hat
2. A cheating ex that he still lets hang around him
3. The dog
So I let him slide on the dog bit.
Oh wait, he has perfect teeth so that’s 4. I still let him slide.

My wife was 42 when I met her. No kids and she had never been married before. I was divorced with two kids. They love her more than their real mother and have made her life complete. Hear me when I say there is a better tomorrow.

I have three kids, and they are all totally different. Your kid won’t be a little you. He’ll be his own person. That’s true whether he’s your biological child or not. If you have love to give (and it sounds like you do), don’t close that door when there are so many children out there who need love.

Don’t make that mistake, you never want to micromanage your kids. You sort of have to go with the flow. You sort of lead, but discretely. My father did that with all 7 of us, and it worked out well. It’s only now as a soon to be grandparent, I’ve realized all of the things my parents did for me, without me even realizing it at the time.
OTH my sister and b-i-l adopted through Catholic Charities, and they have wonderful home they have given him, and the joy he has brought them is incredible.
If adoption is your only option, please consider it. You would be doing a wonderful thing for a child.

Why do people with kids make this assumption?
I've been told for years and years that someday I'm going to regret not having kids.
I suppose I'll just have to keep waiting...
I'm glad that you like having kids and you feel like that's something you needed in your life. Not everyone does.

When they get older it certainly does. We made the mistake of opening the elf pandora box. Those little bastards moved around at completely random times.
I am looking forward to grandkids so we don't have to do that stuff. With two boys I think my wife will enjoy being a MIL too.

This is true. And as a father of four grown kids, I say you should not have children unless you are positive that’s what you want. You would not be doing the child, or society, any favors.
BTW, my fifth grandchild was born late last night on the 25th!
