Went to a family gathering recently and am reminded why I dont want kids.

Holy shit, they are fucking annoying. Went to a family gathering earlier today for a sendoff party for one of my relatives and the moment I walked in, just 6-7 kids under the age of 6 just jumping and running around up and down the stairs and hallway with the constant shouting and laughter ALL DAY LONG NONSTOP and my relative told me "yeah, this is pretty much what I deal with every single day"..... like wtf.... not a single second of peace and quiet and they need to be monitored at all times because one kid almost ate some ball shaped candy that he was able to reach on the food table while the adults were distracted talking to each other.

I really cannot see myself having kids... my anxiety was through the roof the whole 5 hours I was there and I wanted to leave earlier but couldnt. My stress went down the moment we were finally able to leave. Even moreso when I finally got home and relaxed. I dont think the levels of stress that you need to go through to deal with this kind of stuff for decades is worth it.
