Babies.... A gift, a Burden, or an Ornament of Life ???? (Warning: BORING =p)

One of the most controversial thing happens in this world right now is whether to have a child or not.

Some couples would love to have babies in their life. This group argues that a baby is a gift. The baby could bring you joy and happiness, despite of all the 'cost' that come with the baby ever since the first time the doctor announced that there is a baby in the mother's body. They said that the baby make them complete and have the purpose of life. They fill ini their days. Well the cost you must pay is the cost of the wonderful feeling that comes with the baby. Well, afterall, nothing is free in this world right?? 

Some of these type of couples are very lucky. They can get the child they want at the time they want. In another word, they are the normal couples.

The other group of this type of couples are those who are not so lucky. They have to spend a lot of money, a lot of time, effort and heart to get a baby. They go to fertility clinic just to have a baby of their own. And even when they have spent the money, time, effort and heart, some of them still can't have the baby of their own, even after all of the hardwork abd even when they really and desperately want a baby. These couples are the couples that usually undergo the adoption process. They even willing to adopt some stranger's baby, just to have what they call a perfect family.

The other major group of couples are those who do not want any baby in their life. They say that the baby only makes the difficult life even more difficult, not to mention the money 'cost'. You have to take care of them, and buy all of their need, education, and medication. And after that, they go to college, meet a partner and have a family of their own. Well what is last for the parents????

It is very lucky that some of these types of couples are not cappable to have a baby. So everythig is just placed in the right spot. How about the others. The young and irresponsible couples?? they just know how to make the baby, but forget the concequences, and by the time it happened, they go to some cilinics and get rid of the 'burden', or perhaps wait until the baby is born and then throw them in the trash. Some of them just put the babies in the orphanage houses and some other couples will come and thake care of them (Well, compare them to those who have to spend a lot of things in the fertility clinics). Some of them tried to be responsible. I have to admit that some of them (just the small par of them) did very well as parents. But how about the rest of them?? What happend to the children??? 

The other couples are those who irresponsibly just make as much babies as they can. They forget that the children have a lot of needs. They need love, care, education, etc. Well, anyway, who am i to judge them?? Because i believe they have their own reason, which still make me confuse what are their reason.

The last but not least, are those who think that having a kid is just an obligation. An obligation to the family, to the ancestors, to carry out the family name. Well, when you die, do you need the family name. I also dunno what happen after we die, but i think ther are a lot things that can be a consideration but the family name. These couples are the parents with the kids that lack of love and care. They are just an ornament. It's been a common thing that a normal familiy is the family with cute and wonderful kids, that is why they want to have children so that "other people" will say that they are the role model of happy family.

Luckyly i was born from the first group. My parents wanted me because they really want to have children in their life to cheer up their life. Even now i am away from home i always feel that my family loves me and misses me, and they want me to achieve my dreams. They never mentioned about the money and effort they gave. They always happy when i am happy and they are also proud when i achieve something. Thank God for giving such a wonderful fam to me ^^

Well, in what kind of family you were born, and what kind of couples or parents that you want to be?? Whether you want a baby or not, just dun see a child as a burden or an ornament. Act like an adult, a responsible adult, when you are an adult.

Well, last just wanna say thankx for reading such a boring topic like this

Gut nite y'all ^^
