it doesn't have to be, but based on the way these things turn out (nobody really plans to have kids anymore, they just have them) it can add stress simply because you weren't expecting it or because you know things will change and have to. that is, if you have the child...

I'd like to think so. Having a child means you have to be less selfish. No more living for you. It will always be about that child. I think thats where the stress comes, primarily. Knowing that you can't do what you used to, until the little monster is 18. lol
For those who plan children, I don't think it adds much stress at all. If thats what they planned, then they can't complain. Those who didn't plan it, though...I'm sure they've got a list hidden behind their ear (that they'll probably deny), of their woulda-coulda-shouldas. Such as life, though.

Great point.
Everything also becomes magnified with a child in the picture.
Financial issues become that much bigger cause it affects your seed.
The stress of worrying about their education, health, future, etc. far outweighs a single person stressing family shyt or whatever the case may be is my whole point.
Worrying for two is more weight on your shoulders than just dealing with your own issues.
This chick I'm dating, who has no kids, doesn't seem to understand why I seem more stressed on the reg than she is.

LMAO I guess that period never came for ol girl.
Still waiting for jumpoff to hit that time of the month before I answer this thread
But I'm leaning towards Yay.
i find that the most stress that comes from having a kid is realizing how many things in life are out of your control. wanting everything to be perfect and accepting that it usually doesn't work out that way.
From what I'm learning is that babies are pretty cheap in the beginning. All I'm thinkin about is what's gonna happen when my girl is at work at the same time as me. Daycare = $

I can barely focus on brazillian jiujitsu right now. I was havin trouble with a blue belt the other day. I, i think im losin my nerve. Saw so many openings to submit and i was just like.
i dont feel like it and just smothered friend for 15 minutes. What are ya gonna do. My baby is due in march and 
its like theres a cloud over me at all times. People trying to share frivilous dozens jokes against me and im just like , dont play with me right now, friend. Then my old lady is complaining all the time and i have to decipher how much of it is hormonal and how much is an actual problem. Keeping up with her diet and nutrient intake for the sake of the baby. and the baby isnt even here yet. Once you have a child, and plan on being a good parent, you only have responsibilities to look forward to.Its so angelic, friends?

You think you bad? You ain't bad!
infants are no joke, and that's just based on observation
People say that babies cry differently depending on what they need (hungry, tired, uncomfortable, or just want attention), but its all the same to me.
