Do Dataloungers make good parents? Who among us are married with children?

No. They try to force their 16 year old kids to pass for 11 years old. This helps the 50-something Datalounger pass for several years younger than his own true age.

Fortunately most DL parents are rich. After paying tens of thousands to their egg donor and surrogate, they still have enough money to send their kid to therapy for several years.

I'm a DL parent and am just as exhausted all the time as other parents. We don't treat/raise our kids any different than anyone else. And we aren't "rich" (as R1 suggested...) We did have our kids via surrogacy - and we did pay a good sum to have them - but we worked for the money. Neither of us came from money. We worked hard, saved, and then decided we wanted to have kids. We're hopeful that we will be able to leave our two kids a good sum of money once we're gone.

I can't imagine - I'm just happy being their favorite uncle.

As long as they give me the respect that I'm entitled to. Why can't they treat me like I would be treated by any stranger on the street?

Woe unto the poor tyke who confuses bernaise with hollandaise!

"I didn't want to, but I had to slap you. You just confused lawn green with chartreuse. Don't do it again."

R2 you’re so sweet! Salt of the earth. All best wishes parenting!

Now back to bitchery. What do’s and don’t’s about parenting have you picked up from Datalounge?

I have a teen son that I parent with my ex. He's well adjusted (as far as teen boys go), happy go lucky and very accepting of others. His gf loves that he has 2 Moms. All in all, I do the opposite of my Mother and that seems to be working.

I’m hyper-competitive when insecure and I already over-use several poorly understood psychological diagnosis that I collect from shitty internet sources.

My children would hate any form of therapy that would help them heal from my demented child-raising. I’d unleash a legion of short, some-what funny looking lawn gnomes upon the planet and each would have the personality of Winona Ryder.

I will not produce children and you are welcome.

I've said it before, I'll say it again: One of the perks of being gay is, no matter what happens in my boudoir, a squalling, pissing snot factory won't show up nine months later.

I would love to have a teen son. As long as he agreed to me introducing him to everyone as my older brother.
