I'm technically a newlywed (Year and a half), and expecting a child in January.
I've always wanted to be a father. Why? Cause I wanted to try and measure up to my old man. Sure I could beat him at a game of 21... or run faster than he can... he still beats me at poker. But the thing is he provided me with a life that most people dream about. I'm not famous, nor am I wealthy by any stretch of the word. But I'm happy. I've done things most people never get the chance to do, and it's mainly because of my parents.
I need to know that I can be that kind of person. If I can't provide the same level of happiness my parents provided for me, I know that I will be falling just short... not failing.
Having said all that, I don't pressure friends and family to pro-create. I do believe it's a personal choice. It's a life changing situation. I'm ready for it, some people aren't. I get that.
Tron doesn't have time for kids cause he's playing my old PSP... once you can cut down video game time... you're ready.
