Well, I wish I had children, but I never find the right partner. Now I am 52, and I don't want to make children anymore, I know I still can. But as a father you want to be there for your children as long as possible. Making a woman pregnant means when the child goes to school other people will ask if I am his/her granddad. When (s)he is about 30 I am possibly gone. But there is no security in that, some peopel die when they're just 30. But the chance to die grows by the years passing by. So I won't produce children anymore. But if I meet a woman who has 1 or 2 children still living with her, they are welcome. And if they are living on their own already, they still are welcome. As long as they will accept me the same way as I will try to accept them.

Yeah, I wanted a daughter or two for the longest even though I was married twice, near 20 years second time. Still do I think.
It scares the hell out of me even more than the idea of running into a burning building. To give up ones life not just for the moment but for the rest of your days. Wow.
