I can tolerate kids in short bursts. Like last summer I visited my friend across the country who had a 2 year old daughter. I could play with her for 15-20 minutes at a time, no issue. If I have to watch a kid for a long period of time, or be responsible for taking care of them, then I stop liking it.
I like my kids. Other people's kids are normally annoying as hell.This but reverse. Mine are annoying as hell, but I like other peoples'.
