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.
