Agreed. Never had any desire to have kids, still don't. (The wife wants them, though.)

That said, when we had a pregnancy scare last week, my first thought was "well I'm 36; guess it's time anyway".

She was not pregnant. Which was relieving, because I don't think it's a wise decision to have children in today's political landscape. That said, if it happens, it happens. I don't think I'd have a meltdown over being a dad like I would have in my 20s.
