the if and when

Sometimes i wonder what i will do when i procreate. how will i handle it? will i be good at it? how will i make the rules? how will i enforce them? how will i talk about the hard things? where will i get the money to support them? will i really make it to the concerts and/or games? what will be my official stand on world issues? will i give them my beliefs or just the ones i feel like they should have? will i talk to them like equals or like subordinates? will they think i'm funny? will i find them funny? when do i tell them? what will i do if they cry? what will i do if they are threatened? how will i cope when, at times, they do not like me? will they understand that i only mean the best? what will i do when they are old enough to make their own lives? when should i let them go? will anyone ever love them like i will? will they take care of me when i am old?

will they be proud of the choices i made in life....and of the ones i make in their presence?
