And, Lemongrab. Your fears and mine are very much the same. At first I would say that I don't like children too, but actually it's not that, it's actually I'm rather scared of them. I am no good with them either . I don't think I've ever held one and I don't think I've ever had one smile at me ever. Have you ever had one of those situations where you're like at a family get together or something and your cousin brings his/her toddler or baby out and everyone's like "Oooh" and "Aaah" and then you just sit there not saying anything? Not because you don't like children, you just don't know what to do or say. And, everyone is playing with the child and the child smiles and laughs (especially babies) and you think to yourself "Please Lord above!! Pleeeaaassse, don't let them come my way, it's going to be so embarrassing!!" and then you look again, they bring the baby to you and you can't make it laugh or smile like everyone else did. It's the worst feeling in the whole world! Your family's looking at you funny, and you think "Oh no, they all think I'm some kind of monster." At that point I feel like disappearing into the ground. Damn, children are so intuitive, LOL! It's almost like they can sense stuff about you.

The worst is when I talk to it like an adult and it just stares at me blankly...along with the rest of the family.
