[LWalk18]

I actually do want and like children, I just know someone who is very close to me who doesn't. I believe that children are too precious to used as a way to persuade someone to grow up or become affectionate, or to save a faulty relationship.

Amen all the way. Children are not equipped to be the "solution" to any of those problems. To saddle them with that responsibility is a recipe for disaster!
