I'd be curious if this holds up just viewing my friends kids. It seems from the outside, some enjoy their kids, some don't. Some have kids who are generally pleasant to be around, some don't.

I've always wanted kids but I of course imagine having the pleasant to be around kind. Not that I wouldn't do my best to see they come out that way but I'm sure most of the parents with unpleasant kids thought they were doing the right thing at the time.
