Poll suggested by hcordes

3 Kids and not one Wargamer!!

yay!!! my poll! 2 kids, one thats three and likes to "paint" the other one (15 months) just tries to put everything in his mouth.

I have two,My Daughter,who is 10 and definatly NOT into wargamming,anime and drawing is her thing,as well as worrying about what she intends to wear alot.

And my Son,who is 8,who enjoys looking at Daddys models,and asking 100 questions about "Daddys Game", but is much more interested in his Tae Kwon Do classes and watching T.V....but,He has on occasion talked about getting some "soldiers" of his own...Space Marines (sigh)

I dont think a 14 year old should have kids yet :p

sigh... in a 70+% male college, in a 90% male major...

ladies at my school are like parking spots. Either taken, or handicapped.

hopefully my situation will improve when I graduate and get a real job.

Kids? My girlfriend and I aren't yet in a stable enough position to justify getting a cat. Granted, our "recreational activities" aren't very likely to accidentally result in a kitten, so we're waiting until things are a bit more stable to get pets and suing the out of the contraceptive company if we have kids before then.

The one step son, has a small chaos army and plays very rarely, but we lack a LFGS so he only has me to play

Two step sons. who play orks , SM and chaos but who also want Nids and other monsters in their armies.

I let em, Its fun to see Sm allied with 'fexes!

2 daughters and will do everything in my power to make sure they don't war game.

thats like throwing them to the wolves....

I have 2, soon t be 3. The oldest is 7, and she is currently learning to play MTG. She would watch me play at my old FLGS, so I'll probably get her interested at some point. My Son is turning 2 next month, but he already loves playing with "daddy's people". Wife is pregnant with another girl, due next month. So I'll do my best to get her into it.

Currently stuck in Korea, so I'm not in a position to influence too much right now. 3 months down, 9 to go. Hopefully my next duty station will have a FLGS as good as my old one (Gamer's Hideout in St Robert MO. GREAT place!)

Time's a plenty when you've just passed twenty

No kids but my wife has been hinting that she wants to ruin our lives...

None that i know of.

None that I know off...then again, I AM only 13...

No kids. Can't have them.


Thanks for reminding me.

Daughter aged 13, apple of me eye and all!

I ticked the box "into wargaming" as we play WHFB And have also had fun playing LOTR, but it is Anima Tactics that is the thing at the moment!
She also regularly plays AD&D at home.

You told tthem they cant do something? That is like handing them some tyranids and some paint and hoping the dont get interested!

I have a 3 1/2 year old Noise Grot. He likes nothing better than to run around the house shouting famous Ork quotes like "WAAAAAGGH!" And "red ones go faster". very cute, Until he told his preschool teacher that he was an ork and "Orks are da biggest and da strongest." I laughed. My wife not so much. He wants his own orks too, does anyone know where I can get a plush Ork

No Kids yet, although I have had a few girls pull the "Im pregnant" April fools joke on me. But fortunate never a "hey rememeber that night.....?"

A plushie ork

Isn't that an oxymorkon?

It would be tooooo soft to be an Ork...Maybe a sand paper Ork cause that sir is rough enough..LOL

I have a 3yr old MC at home, darling daughter. She'll be a gamer for sure. Loves nothing more that to random scatter models on my gaming table and sneak using the xbox controller

Ok, maybe a stuffed ork with sandblasted skin?

hehe
a Squigg(space)hopper would be so cool!?
I bagsy intellectual rights

I voted Other, because "None that I know about" is offensive. I have no children, I don't have possible kids.

I agree

I have two SoB one is 2 and the other is 5. My wife and myself play 40k and as of late my oldest has started to get into watching us play and helping my wife play her Daemons, but always wants daddy and his Nids to win. We have been thinking in a few years we would like to take her to a kids summer camp held at our local store that teaches her to paint and play the game and so on and so forth.
