I think it's a natural instinct of parents to get their children to have kids. My parents are putting pressure on me at the moment to provide them with grandchildren. The slight difficulty in that is I'm not married and don't have a girlfriend. The term concerning putting a cart before a horse springs to mind.

When I was single in the early 90's and no boyfriend I used to get asked by co-workers (usually after someone's baby shower) "So when are you going to have one?" The only thing I think is strange is that these people are asking her when she's going to have one if they know she's not married.
On the continent we have a bonmot: To become a father is not difficult. Being a father is very.
As a happy father of 3 little boys I think it is nessecary first to find a suitable mother first than even think about kids. Furthermore is parental pressure not helpful when you have to make decisions whether a girl is the right one or not. First of all you have to love her to get happy. Children are just the result of a happy relationship.
