I think children are ok as long as I don't hear them.
As soon as they start making noise I remember the following situation:

Friend1: (to Friend2)  If you ever bring your children to my house
expecting me to babysit, I will put a big pot of water on the stove and
boil them.

Friend2: (to me) He doesn't mean that!  Does he?

Me: Wellllll....

Thereafter, in restaurants, public places, anywhere obnoxious children are
heard you may hear me say:

WHERE'S THE BABY POT!

Perhaps this goes in cheery thoughts...
