Top 10: Reasons I Don't Want to Have Children
I know...i know...what a way to start a blog! This, by no means, is a reflection of where I want this blog to completely, though every once in a while I will be offering my opinion on certain life events. Fashion is life, life is fashion, and your decision to procreate says just as much about you as your shoes.
With that, here goes!
#10- Babies are expensive.
And it never ends. I can give you my mother’s email if you don’t believe me. Between college tuition, jonas brothers posters and, you know, doctors, it can cost over $1 million to raise one child. God forbid you have a gay boy, you’re looking at that in clothes and shoes alone!
#9- Babies are messy.
Unless you have live in help, your house will never look as good as it used to. And it will smell of sour milk.
#8- Your life no longer becomes your own.
The joys of child rearing are supposed to help you to forget that you used to be a complete person. Not just mommy. You can never, ever say “I love you, but I love me more” to a toddler.
#7- Babies are FOR LIFE.
Or at least until they turn 18, resent you, and start sending you their therapy bill.
#6- Babies are always around.
It is no longer socially acceptable to send kids to boarding school and only see them at Christmas.
#5- Diapers.
#4- Babies depend on you.
The thought of having a dog seems like too much responsibility, and you only have to walk and feed them.
#3- Children don’t behave like adults.
I like to know that if I say something to someone they will listen to me. If I say, “Don’t step on my $500 shoes!” they won’t. Most kids will do it anyway.
#2- Cats don’t like kids.
As a rule. We all saw Lady and the Tramp, look at how much trouble that baby caused!
AAANNNND! Number 1-
I have yet to acknowledge that Joan Crawford is not a model parent. “When I asked you to call me that, I wanted you to mean it!”
