Reason To Not Have Kids, #1

Have you ever seen that show, 'Tom and Kate Plus 8?' Is it just me or do those two hate each other and resent their children? They never look into each others' eyes, and each confessional segment seems like a bout of stinging jabs and low blows about the other's parenting style. That's a feeling I could conceivably understand, resentment. I have a few friends that have been tricked into an early bird marriage by an untimely impregnation of their girlfriends. But, that poor Jon guy. First twins, and then without warning a litter of like, 14 or something? Watching that show set my having kids back about 30 years.

that show terrifies me.
she gets her hair done in one and he calls her crying and screaming and the kids are all over him like leaches and she just hangs up the phone and laughs laughs laughs.

people having kids like hamsters then getting a fucking show is enough for me to run and get the tubes tied.

sheesh.
