Kids: The Ultimate Form of Birth Control!

Alright, do not get ahead of me just from the title. The title is meant to maybe, just maybe get a small chuckle while trying to spur some thought. Women, you probably already have what I am going to say figured. Gents, if you are like me, you probably have no clue what the hell my title means. Being a father of four I finally understand exactly what that means!

I will be the first one to admit that the title seems a little strange. Lets make a couple of assumptions before we go any further. I assume that you my dear reader either A) have kids, B) do not have kids, of C) thinking about or have one on the way. I am sure there more categories but for the sake of my low mental capacity lets just leave it like it is.

What exactly do I mean you ask, the ultimate form of birth control? It is actually quite simple. The spare time you had before the child comes compared to when the child gets here are on two very extreme different ends of the spectrum. I say this from past experience. Before my wife and I had a child we had all the time in the world. We could do whatever we wanted when we wanted it did not matter. After baby number one I was always so tired and my wife was so tired that the only thing we did was take care of the baby. We did what she wanted and that was about it. Lets multiply this by four. Now that we have four children the only time my wife and I actually get a chance to see each other is if we make it to bed at the same time. When that happens, believe it or not, the only thing you want to do is get some sleep. After all, the nights are generally filled with pee breaks, glasses of water, midnight snacks, and the famous monsters under the bed. I am not saying this is bad because I love my children more than anything and my wife and I are truly blessed to have four beautiful children. Of course if nights are like that, just imagine the day routine. I work all day and come home and just want to relax. This is wishful thinking, my wife has been home all day and is probably going insane from taking care of four kids who have more energy the the energizer bunny could ever wish for. Who can blame her? She is a chef, maid, tutor, teacher, seamstress, taxi cab, doctor, and so many other things this whole blog could be filled with just her jobs! She needs her break when I get home. This never happens though cause four kids have learned to gang up on parents two on one and two on the other!!!

So I guess my ramblings have lead me to this conclusion. If you never want to have kids, have four!! You will never see your spouse again!! With this said, I will say once again that I am a lucky man to have the wife and kids that I do and I would never trade that for anything. But let me be the first to say, they really are the ultimate form of birth control!!
