Poll question: When is the best time in a relationship to tell your partner that you want to have kids?


The backstory: This is inspired by today's tabloid stories about John Mayer "cooling off" on his relationship with Jennifer Aniston because she's supposedly informed him that she wants kids, and he's supposedly told her that he's not ready. Sounds like they both handled it responsibly, so it's all about the timing.

6. It would seem to me if it were important to one or the other
they would simply ask when they felt it's the right time.
