A couple years back I started attending Buddhist Temple for the first time in my adult life. Somehow, I ended up becoming the defacto baby sitter of the kids there. The moms trusted me, a 30-something year old bachelor that was just trying to stay out of trouble and grow the hell up. Those kids changed me. They forced me to be more perfect, to be more entertaining, honest, everything. When covid hit, pushed by the DS, that was the end of that. We had a few months respite in the summer when I was able to hang out with them again, teach them how to tie-dye, set up painting parties, play them the music I have learned on my many adventures.
My only thoughts when I am with those children are to protect and teach them. It brings me to tears, when I ponder the level of depravity that is going on in the world.
I can't wait to be with them again.

I caregive for children with special needs. These precious souls have taught me more than what I could ever teach them. The fire that fuels my soul to continue fighting, no matter the obstacle, is because I want to ensure that they can live in a bright and promising future. See you on the other side my friend!

Kids need masculine mentors. It is lacking in society and I will do what I can to be an example.
But I appreciate the concern. Maybe after all this, things can go back to where men were allowed to play with random children and it wasn't weird.
Find a big strapping farm girl with a pretty face and nice disposition.
One who looks feminine, yet has big ol' baby-making hips.
Get married and start knocking out young'uns.
You'll have your own passel of brats in no time!
Seriously -- it's fun parenting. Watching kids grow and learn. And a farm is ideal.
Id love to. It's hard to find someone good, especially now that I am looking for a wife instead of just getting laid.
