Itch Posted February 10, 2009 Content Count: 3440 Joined: 12/12/07 Status: Offline Share Posted February 10, 2009 I would suggest waiting. I have 2 kids of my own and wouldn't trade them for anything.. but the child also deserves a father. If the worst were to happen can she afford to take care of the child by herself? Plus there are tons of little things that you'll wish you had been around for .. a lot of firsts... first word,step,tooth, etc.. as cliche as it sounds you will wish you had been able to see those things for yourself.

I do understand the point in which you are making but why not just get your sperm frozen and if something does happen she can have a baby still. And from my morale stand point, I don't know about anyone else but I would want to see my child be born and be there for him/her, throughout his/her life. But thats just my opinion, in the end the choice is yours. Link to comment

Eheh, thinking that having a baby will strengthen a relationship is a common and misinformed judgment. A child will only strengthen a relationship once said relationship has been put on the brink of falling apart. This is because once the couple have gotten past all of the stress that the child has induced, it will strengthen the couple's bond between each other. Psychology, you see. Anyway, this is a sensitive subject. In my own opinion I recommend you have the child after your duty, because there is a fairly low risk of you being killed, and even a lower risk of becoming impotent by someone shooting you in the balls. I wish you all the luck! Edited February 10, 2009 by Huwajux Link to comment

His girlfriend has already stated she wants a kid, and he's just looking for reassurance that his opinions, which appears to be to wait, is something he should go with. Link to comment

Relationships are more than just marriage and children, atleast if you aren't 100 years old. Link to comment
XeNo Posted February 10, 2009 Content Count: 6466 Joined: 07/22/08 Status: Offline Share Posted February 10, 2009 Yea, wait till you get back, you don't want your baby to grow up without a father. There's a slight chance that you'll get killed, but i doubt. though i'd wait. Don't kill to many civilians on the way ^^ I originate from Iraq. Just curious, why do you guys keep talking like he'll be gone for years? He said 10-12 months. 3 months at the most of not being with his girlfriend and child. Perhaps some of you forgot it takes 9months for the child to be born... His child won't even remember the first 3 months of her/his life anyways. Unless you're implying you think he'll die in Iraq.
