God I hate children. I hope one day when I have my own I can get past. Anyone here who posted stories about their kids feel that way about kids before having their own? Does it get easier when they belong to you? Is it even possible to hate your own kids?

I really disliked kids too, but after the first year (when they've become a lot less helpless) something changed, and now I love mine more than anything.
It does get easier when they're yours, and I can't see myself ever hating my kid, but sometimes they piss you off. (just like any adult would)

maybe you shouldn't have kids......perhaps you should let your DNA return to dust.
Since the Calgary Flames aren't in the playoffs, we have been watching whatever playoff games are going on. I have a few teams that I like, but nothing really passionate about. After watching Nashville beat Detroit in the first-round, my 6-year old son asked, "is this a 'yay!' or an 'aww'?"

I only like my own kids. Other kids and their parents annoy me somewhat.

backstory: I have an 8 year old daughter from a relationship that ended 7 years ago. Her mom is the primary care giver, so I get to be weekend dad!
When she was 5, my then girlfriend (now wife) and I took her to the zoo. She had a backpack with her that was resting on the back seat beside her. We arrived at the zoo, all got out of the car and started to walk away. All of a sudden she stops, looks up at me and exclaims "I forgot my backpack! Oh for f***s sake!"
My girlfriend and I stopped and stared at each other in amazement.
I scolded my daughter saying that those aren't words kids are supposed to use and we walked back to the car. As she was getting her stuff out of the back seat, my girlfriend and I looked at each other and struggled to hold back the laughter.
There's something incredibly cute about a 5 year old saying "Oh for f***s sake"
We assumed that she picked it up from her mom or step-dad since they used that kind of language often. Thankfully we haven't had an issue with her language since...

Five years back I took my then-girlfriend (now Mrs. Puppet) to my sister's place to meet the family, and during the evening my mom called. My niece (then 5) ran to the phone to talk to her gramma, and told her excitedly that Uncle (Puppet Guy) and "his new sister (Puppet Girlfriend)" came over for supper. Everyone shares this combined look of horror, disgust and amusement before exploding laughing.

I hear ya, and it is much different when it's your own kids. Before you have kids a lot of these stories feel like "you had to be there" moments. I never understood how funny people found kid stories until I had one. Very basic things from my little guy make me laugh very very hard.
I work with KTrain and his kids are pretty damn funny. My favourite is when they were watching Jurassic Park and the goat is chained up in the T-Rex enclosure.
"This is the part where the goat turns into the T-Rex".
I keep telling him he as to take his kid to a goat farm and when he asks what they're doing there he can just respond with "shhhhhh.... watch".

Shouldn't you have your kids out working in the backyard, and hauling garbage out to the dump, it sounds like they have way too much time on their hands if they're thinking up these clever quips.
the sooner that you people get around to breaking their resolve the better our future labor pool looks.
Yup. The low snowfall this year didn't help either.
Yesterday, wife with three kids in tow going in to vote. Two year old looks around and blurts out at the top of his lungs "Vaciiiiiiiiiiiiiiiine - Noooooooooo - Noooooooo Vaciiiiine"! TOTAL MELTDOWN ENSUED. The polling ladies were pretty good at showing him around and that there were no needles anywhere.
Somehow I think he sensed that we were going to still get stuck with something at that place...

I remember visiting Eatons with my grandma in 1999 when they were shutting down and I sat on a couch they had for sale and asked "Grandma, where's the TV?"

I have a lot of stories that I find funny about my kids (6 and 4). Reading through this thread has motivated me to never tell anybody a "funny" story about my kids ever again.
