36. I don't want to have any, but I generally like kids.
I think I'm kind of tempermentally not cut out for parenting because I'm kind of the "oversized kid" type, myself, but I think young people are neat. They're more curious. They can admit they don't know something. They say what they think more often. They usually have a sense of fairness. It's what happenes to them later on, usually when they become teenagers, and especially when they have crappy parents, that isn't pretty.

(Sidebar: When I played house as a kid, I never wanted to be the mommy or the baby, or even cross the lines and be the daddy. I actually once said, "I'll be the unmarried aunt who's really cool and babysits and brings junk food and presents." I was five.)
