Well, at this point, I don't. Things can change, though. My mom always tells me that when she was my age, she was like "no, I'm definitely not having children," and now she has two. I've just never properly related to children, or found myself feeling much of a connection to or affection toward them -- maybe one place in which my heart is cold. I've worked with kids a number of times, and honestly, find it kind of difficult; I think relating to kids is almost a skill that you either have or don't have... and I most certainly do not. I babysit every so often, and I find myself in a really odd position when I have to try to explain things to a five year old in terms that he'll understand. Most of the time, he just looks at me like I have three heads. The inability to relate to kids on the right level just makes me uncomfortable around them, because I have no idea what to do.
