As announced in the "How was your day" thread, My wife and I's epic, MS to real life love story is about to take another turn, as we are pregnant, and due in March.
Was just wondering if there were any SP users who have kids? I know the chance is slim, but wanted to check anyways. Nervous about some things, and was just looking for some advice/answers. Registering on a "New Dads" Forum might be my best options I guess lol.

[MENTION=4093]SaptaZapta[/MENTION]; has kids. There are a couple more too.
You could join reddit.com/r/parenting on reddit since I browse there a bit and they're a friendly bunch.

I never knew!
I actually got pretty curious about this aswell.
It´s strange because I never really gave this any thought of that someone from SP could have kids.
I´m not even sure why.
Also, I wish you all the luck with becoming a father.

Congratulations!
Yes, I'm a mother. You're welcome to ask me anything (not promising to know the answer).
One thing I will tell you right now: relax.
Parenting forums and books are too often scary. They tell you that if you do certain things, or fail to do certain other things, you will definitely cause your baby irreparable harm. That's usually wrong. Furthermore, you can often find a book or a parenting group that advises doing the exact opposite... So, while you should listen to advice and especially the reasoning behind it, when given, you shouldn't take anything too hard.
BTW, I've met many parents on MapleStory. So the chances of finding such on Southperry aren't all that slim. I can't offhand remember any except myself and TaliaNCo, but I wouldn't be surprised if there are.

Congratulations! They are correct, I also have children. (4 to be exact lol) I dare say I'm probably just about the oldest one on SP, though I don't know for sure. Feel free to ask questions. I may not always be right or know the answer but I do have quite a bit of experience in that department and am always willing to help out a new parent. (Believe me when I say you can ask me anything....I'm not shy and don't get embarrassed by anything so you're good lol)

I thought we'd settled that already. I was born in 1965.
But you do have twice as many children.

Nothing pisses me off like the anti-children circlejerk I see on reddit. Can you keep that out of this site?

tl;dr: We're all getting old and getting married, and possibly having kids. Before you know it, SP: Show pictures of your children general.
