It seems that, even though my mom has accepted the fact I don't want children, no one else will. So let's go over some of the reason I would make a lousy mother versus the reasons I would make a great mother and determine if I am fit to be a parent.
Why I'd be a bad mother:
1) I have no desire to have children. I would think that any decent parent would want children. I don't.
2) My goals and ambitions tend to eclipse my want of a normal life. I have so much I want to do. When am I supposed to find time to settle down and pop out kids?
3) I've taken care of my elderly grandmother for most of my teenage years. She's like a giant baby. I no longer wonder what it would like to care for someone else. And honestly, after taking care of her, I don't want to care for someone else.
4) I like being alone and peace and quiet too much. Children are noisy. Children are demanding and depend on you. I dumped my last boyfriend because he was too demanding. You can't dump kids.
...do I need more reasons, because I'm sure there are more, but I'm too sick to think of them.
Why I'd be a great mother:
1) I don't take shit. Those kids would be well behaved because I wouldn't accept any less.
2) I have great genes. I'm smart. I'm ok looking. I'm not deformed, don't have any genetic diseases--that I know of. Who wouldn't want my genes?
3) I inspire greatness. I would push them to be intelligent and good people and they, in turn, would turn out like me: someone who wants to cure cancer and help people. Wouldn't that be great to have someone just like you out there?--provided you're a decent person.
Well, I can't think of any more reasons. I guess the nays have it. Oh well.
