The Closing Window and Fatherhood

[ZarathustraParticipant 2246]

Something Old Bill said in these forums a few months ago really stuck with me….

He was responding to a post by a 53 years old thinking about having children for the first time.

He said: “That Window has closed”

Indeed it must close, for all of us, at some point. I am 42 years old and have never had a child. Now the window has closed. If I had a kid now it would be leaving the house, if I am lucky, by the time I turn 60. With partial retirement looming in the next 5 years and total retirement in 10, I just can’t see myself going back to the plantation and delaying my retirement.

So, I have scheduled a vasectomy. I haven’t had sex in 7 years and probably won’t, but all the more reason to do it. Some drunk night I might make a mistake and think with my little head and I cannot take the risk.

Its even riskier now than when I was in my 20’s and 30’s as I had a lot of extra time to pay for 18 years of children.

If you are in your 40’s there is even more reason…

Think about it…

Smart move. Do it.

Peace is > piece.

[SH3LLZParticipant 5569]

You’re absolutely correct. 2018 is the year of my vasectomy. I had my son when I was 20. He’ll be 18 in 5 months. I’ll never have another kid again.

I got very lucky with a great kid and his mom is a reasonable woman.

I don’t wanna take a chance on a serial killer or a psycho money Grubb in bitch.

Cheers!

Yeah the sad thing is a had a pregnancy scare with an ex at age 35. She lied to me and said she wasn’t pregnant but got an abortion behind my back. That was my last chance. She was crazy but I would have welcomed the chance to be a father then. But it also taught me: They aren’t our children. SHE makes all the decisions, not the man.

I have thought about it.

I already have children. I’M DONE.

When I am divorced I’ll be in my 50’s, and I shall get a vasectomy as a precaution against ANY POTENTIAL STUPIDITY.

I just imagine bedding some HOE in her late 30’s in a moment of STUPIDITY, and have her come running to me one day that I’m going to be a “DADDY” AGAIN.

Just the thought of the mere POSSIBILITY of this happening is enough for me to put a Vasectomy on my immediate “To Do List”.

Had mine snipped at 30 (three kids). It’s a big weight off the mind.

I would love to have children, no question about it. When I think about everything I will have to go through in order to have children, I lose interest.

Bring children into THIS world? Are you MAD? INSANE? KOO KOO? Get snipped.

Enough said.

Sniped here at 30.

To those following me, be careful, I just farted. Men those beans are killers.

[Secret Agent MGTOWParticipant 22506]

“Reasonable woman” is an extremely individually subjective term.

In feminazi/bitch circles it means she gets everything she demands.

Women want everything, but want responsibility and accountability for nothing.

Beyond a certain age sperm quality goes down quite greatly. This kind of thing is best avoided when possible.

A MGTOW is a man who is not a woman's bitch!

like so many others my window for having kids was bricked up by the masons of gynocentrism!

What window?

I feel bad for you Gambit. You seem like the type of guy who would be a great dad and would really enjoy fatherhood and all it has to offer but… WOMEN

Our kids are adopted, and I was 45 when they arrived (they were newborns when we got them). I’m planning to basically never retire until they’re at least in their early 20’s (which puts me into my mid to late 60’s) and I hope to be divorced by then (won’t do it now as I need to be there every day – my wife is 51 going on 13 and proud of it, so I need to be there to show them that letting out a loud belch at the table is not acceptable, even though Mommy says it’s funny) (and I know that it’s funny, as I am a guy, but I also want to raise my kids right).

I don’t regret having them, but having them made me realize how immature my wife really is, and also made me realize that I can’t stand her 95% of the time.

This is very logical, and I agree with it. However, I will also add that there’s a worst case scenario: mommy ends the relationship with you, and you’re stuck paying child support until at least 60 – likely 65 when the kid finishes college.

I had a vasectomy at 35, and I’m currently 41. No kids. No regrets.
