having a child, comes with risks, you can speak to someone about genetics and the odds of a child having you're eye condition, you have plenty of time to think about the pros and cons.

Marry a guy with 20/20 vision.

Nah seriously if it happens it happens. It won't make you or her any less of a person anyway. People say when you have your kid you become this totally new person and I don't think any serious worries would come up after that. The bond between you and your child would be paramount.

that's like one of my biggest fears... that my kids will take after me and be hideous children. Like I'm scared I'll pass on my blindness and my god awful hair... Maybe its because those are the two things I'm really insecure about, but still.

If I do have kids when I'm older and its through IVF or w.e I always wonder if I'd actually want my kids to actually be from my cells. I wouldn't want to put them through the hell of being a mini me lol...

Did any mothers on here worry about this? Or does anyone worry about it now?

I was bullied for how I looked, so maybe its all to do with that.

You are lovely... I don't understand this at all! If you have babies and they look like you, they'll be lucky kids.

[smudgie]

Never ever did I think about what my kids would look like when I was pregnant.
I was more concerned first time around if I was really up to the job.


If you have children and they grow up with your personality, then you will have beautiful kids Caitlin.

I think every parent I've ever spoken to has said that as soon as the actual baby arrived they just fell completely in love with it and that was that, nothing else mattered - that baby boy or girl is a little person that's partly made up of you, you'll see features that you like about yourself in the baby etc...

Plus, you're not ugly at all Caitlin. I know loads of girls who would kill to have hair as thick as yours and having poor eyesight just isn't as big a deal now as it was when we were younger, glasses have become a bit cooler now! I was a pale, miserable looking child, an ugly ass teenager who was fat and spotty and had glasses and **** hair and none of that matters anymore because most teenagers are exactly the same. Some kids are cute and some teenagers are cute but they tend to be pretty average looking adults because everybody's too busy checking out the ugly duckling that turned into a beautiful swan. That's you, you swan.

Often very small women target very tall men so that their offspring males will not also be short. its a very deep rooted Darwinian thang

[Josy]

I agree with everyone that's said you would love your kids to bits no matter what and that looks don't even come into it.

But seriously Caitlin you are lovely and you really shouldn't worry about passing on bad eyesight, there's lots more kids have bad eyes now than years ago anyway, have you seen how close they sit glued to the tv?

Tall men in general are targetted by most women, due to the fact that size is an evolutionary hangover from the females search for Alpha males. It's the same reason that see's tall men more likely to be CEO's.

As long as he's taller than me I don't mind, I'm only 5'4.5" so it's not difficult to find someone taller than me

Yes but these small women are tenacious

It's either an evolutionary hangover... or we're hoping they're in proportion. I like my theory best.

I can't say it was something I worried about while I was pregnant no

You are beautiful Caitlin, I'm sure any child you have will be adorable! They make very nice glasses in this day and age, especially children. One of my nieces has VERY thick hair and been wearing glasses since she was three years old. It's like a part of her, nobody even notices them, she is 8 now and has lots of friends and we all love her. The main thing is though that if someone were to call her "four eyes" or something similar she wouldn't care in the slightest, once you teach kids that they have worth and to be confident they are set for life. Just my opinion.

Also, my bf wears glasses and has odd little curls but I honestly do not care at all, I didn't pick him for how he looks, looks aren't everything.
