Sort of. Sometimes I'm like-that's it, we're going to home school our kids (a la the Duggars) when you see all the school shootings on the news. So, I stopped watching the news. Every now and then I worry about what kind of environment our kids will inherit-and by that, I mean the physical environment(global warming, overcrowding, etc). On the whole it doesn't bother me too much though.

What deterred me from wanting kids at first was that, I just didn't want them. Period. I was of the mindset that I like my life the way it is, and I'm selfish, and I'd rather spend $$ on me than a kid, and I didn't feel like I had enough love or patience to give a child.
