"You should have
A Cat
Trust us. You should not reproduce. You may be a perfectly fine human being but you are not equipped to deal with children, at least, not at this time. And perhaps never. Suggested methods of birth control: total abstinence, vasectomy, or tubal ligation. To be safe, consider all three."

I don't fancy the idea of total abstinence or a vasectomy. Is it possible for a man to have a tubal ligation? :-S It'll stop me getting pregnant if I could get that done. ;-) Does it hurt? :-S

My answer - after getting rid of the 'Do you take Statins' question, followed by eleven, was a cat.
I've got 3 - have I over-reproduced?

No idea what I'm meant to do with the 2 children - probably just as well they've left home :-S

I googled, and found the quiz here: http://www.scarymommy.com/how-many-kids/


I was told I could manage two.

I didn't have any.

How do I tell our 4 that we should have had a cat instead. Wonder if we can get a refund for them lol

If my parents didn't have any children, it's unlikely I'd have any either.

Tried three times with a few hours between each try and didn't get asked a single question, but each time it told me I should have seven kids. All I can say is two felt like seven sometimes :-D
