From Someone Who Might Have More Animals Than Kids

No, I don't hate kids. I just prefer animals. Yes, I would like kids. Maybe one, two, no more than that. I just choose to not have a lot of kids. I think about how many animals I'll have, though.

I believe some people want to have a lot of kids and don't like pets. Some people like both a lot. This does not make me mean person, nor a person who does not want a family. I am a very family oriented human being. When we were younger, our teachers would ask us, "What do you want to be when you grow up?" Of course, we had those few peoples who said, "A mom." I can understand that, but I do not choose to only do that all my life.

In a sense, I think animals can be easier to take care of. They are most definitely cheaper than children. I have always thought about how many animals I wanted and how I'll be a good Mommy to all my cats. I will probably end up being a crazy cat lady with no children. My husband will have to deal with my love for animals. He will have to deal with my constant desire to spoil my animals.

Twins run in my family and I'm honestly terrified of just that, two kids at once? This could be one reason why I will probably want to wait and wait until I am absolutely positive that I want a child. I think having a kid to continue my family line, would be very nice, but I do not think about it as much as animals. There is just so many pets that do not have homes. This could be why I am so happy with adoption.

Do not hate my decision to not have a desire of having children. I could be saving us from another over population. Maybe I will have kids, maybe I won't. I am going to be a mommy of many animals, though. Animals deserve a lot of care also. Call me crazy, but I am going to have more animals than kids.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September.
