Congratulations to you meroe
What have I read so far, this has been interesting thread to read. Can't really say anything, what has not said before. People change and mature, life takes different turns.
No, mather what was the topic you held strong someday, it's not embarassing to change that view, when life directs you someday other way. It's healthy imo. Basic of learning and gaining more knowlage is to admit that you don't know all the answers yet and are willing to discover new things in this world.
Being a father is tough business (being a mother is even worse) but it's well worth it. In some point of our life, everyone of us may wants to have children/s. It works other way around aswell, when they break something important (feeling is momentary) but it helps when you repeat "never again" in your mind. Parenting? Yeah, it's a blast.

When I was 18, I didn't want it.
Now that I'm running dangerously close to 29, I absolutely don't want it.
Guess my brain is wired in a way that makes me shiver in fear at the very thought of having a child, regardless of age.
I honestly see absolutely no joy involved in that, whatsoever. I can't even picture it in any way, like, it's completely alien to me.
Fortunately, I have found a girl who thinks the same, but it was just luck. Most women want kids, and when one side wants it but the other doesn't... there is no compromise. You just go with one side's vision of life, making the other potentially miserable for the rest of it. I know a share of women who don't want kids, but most of them also have personality issues. What a weird world.

I have always wanted children.
It wasn't until I turned 32 that I felt like I could handle being a father. My wife and I had been trying for about a year and a half before she got pregnant. Unfortunately, the pregnancy was not viable and we lost the child. It made for a rough December. I remember the day we got the news quite vividly because I had to go to work after the appointment. My client was complaining about how life's not fair. If I could have used the Force to choke her, I would have done so.
Fortunately, it was very early along in the pregnancy and if there are going to be complications, that is probably the best (I use that term very loosely) time to happen. We also learned that she could get pregnant which was always a concern due to some issues she had in the past. But while silver-linings are nice, we still resent people when they announce their pregnancies. We detest such feelings but find them unavoidable. The feelings are amplified when it appears the majority of my young clients are capable of getting pregnant by merely looking at men.
C'est la vie. We are not the first nor shall we be the last to experience such misfortune. We just need to have hope it will happen. If need be, when will adopt. Speaking of, my wife once asked me (before we were married) if I would leave her if she could not get pregnant. I scoffed at the idea and replied "I am perfectly capable of ruining another person's child."
Yeah, I'm a romantic.

A few weeks back I was having a discussion about this with some friends of mine, more on a light-hearted note, discussing why on earth would a guy like me voluntarily decide to live a solitary life, but it still felt odd to hear someone say 'you know, i think you would be a really good father'.
Although I am predisposed to having a child at some point in my life (doesn't mean I will be the biological father, have enough faults in my genes to make me double question the rationale of putting a kid through this much misery), I haven't thought of how much the societal view on yourself as a human being differs from your inner clock. I am 24 now, closing in on 25, and I feel as though I am 18, in terms of my maturity, ability to survive in this hostile world, etc. I never once felt like this could or should be the time to become a father, and I hardly doubt it will come soon.
Even more so, my checkered family past has always left me daunted whether I would suffice as a father: what I missed during my youth doesn't mean that giving it will aid my child - on the contrary, he may need something I don't or cannot give. Irrespective of it, I feel as though you need to have this air of sentimentality about yourself to be good at it. And in that regard, I know I'd love my children to no end.
That said, I am a romantic and highly emotional overall. Therefore, I carry a sentimental notion about fatherhood. Much like someone before me, I consider it somewhat 'sacred', 'spiritual', and therefore, a must have experience at some point in life, be it through adoption or conception.

All babies want a happy life. If you can't provide it to them, don't even think about having children.

Jesus, that's rough. There's no bigger slap in the face for a family than that. Glad you made through this.
Also totally agree on force choking that client of yours. I would've smashed her face with a chair too.
As for myself, I've been at first a bit reluctant on fatherhood, since I was the dude that had to babysit younger siblings whether you want it or not, more so when my mom was is all out of bleeps to give. In short, you cannot love that which was forced on you.
After these few years, my mindset was changed a bit. Esspecially when we started to file all the forms and go through all the crap to get our niece back from the frogs the French.
It would be nice to have kids after all. Sure it's a hell of a lot of work, but, hey, it's worth it.
I mean you can teach them stuff, and try not to repeat the mistakes that your own parents did, and raise them as good human beings in general.

As far as I know, in 1941 this planet was classified as pretty dangerous and unpredictable to have children, especially if you are jewish.

Being a father is awesome. Hell of a lot of work, but there's no better remedy for a snow day than having your little girl run to you from across the room when you pick her up from school. All troubles melt away.
