| I'm quite indifferent to the idea at the moment and don't really think about it much. If I have 'em I have 'em, if I don't I don't. Time will tell. |

| whatever became of the days when children just happened? now everything is scheduled and regimented like a visit to the dentist. |

| Yeah that's pretty much how I feel about it. I'm not really planning for/against kids either way. |

I think that there is absolutely no romance or adventure in planning for pregnancy. Granted I am not about to toss all my jimmy hats out the window, because there is a difference between planning for a wanted pregnancy and planning against an unwanted one. But despite the massive fear associated with how to "prepare" for a child, I imagine at a certain point in my life I will just say it, the time is right for ing it.
Besides, I think nature's prophylactic will carry me just fine.  |

Saying "I'm not going to plan" is basically saying, "I want a kid, but I don't really care when it comes."
:p |

It's interesting how all of a sudden in the mid/late 90s kids started needing all these medications when everyone I knew growing up seemed perfectly fine without them.  |
The kids with these issues were still there, they were just blown off as problem children, their issues attributed to other factors (inaccurately). They weren't perfectly fine, they were just overlooked. When the cure for smallpox was discovered, I have no doubt there were a lot of people saying "in my day, we didn't need no smallpox vaccine. We sucked it up. Kids these days are pussies".

It's largely about parenting.
OR at least family life. Siblings have a big effect too. |

Yeah, I guess my question was pretty harsh. It really can be beneficial when used correctly.
I am curious, did you take medicine for your ADD or did you chose another route? |
I went through a few medications, not knowing the diagnosis would finally be ADD, as it hadn't yet gotten the exposure at the time. I was on Ritalin for years, then Adderall. They worked wonders for me, and I eventually learned to turn the limitations of ADD into abilities that most others did not have. |
