re: #66 Wendell Zurkowitz ((slave to the waffle light))

I must admit that my (ex) wife really had to talk me into having kids, but now they are here I cannot imagine being happy in any world that did not contain them.

I agree, but to say that I am happier than a person who does not have kids would be incorrect. I have so many more worries and stresses than I would without kids. But, I also have so many more joys and wonders than a person without kids. In my life, those balance out, but that is not going to be true for everyone.
