… Let's do a little test, and maybe you will immediately understand something for yourself.
Answer the following questions:
1. Do you have a job and a stable income, which allow you to live well?
2. Why do you need a family? Is it the prospect and goal of your future life?
3. What is your hobby? What do you like? Is your hobby related to your family?
4. Remember your family. What was it like? Do you remember your childhood and youth with pleasure? What place did mom and dad have in your life?
5. Can you imagine what your child will be like? How will you raise him? Do you have plans for his future?
6. Who do you want more: a daughter or a son?
7. Are you ready to play with the baby? What toys are interesting to you?
8. If a girl gets pregnant, what will your reaction be? If you answer all questions easily, it means that you are really ripe for not just being called a father, but for being a father! After all, it is the child who strengthens the relationship between spouses, in the event that they are based on the desire for a long life together.
No matter how trite it may sound, children are like an energy drink: they give us strength, make us study, move forward and grow, look good, be always in good shape and look after our health.
And what could be nicer than meeting successful children? You see how they and your dreams are realized, how smart and beautiful they grow. I didn’t just switch to the plural, since the child needs both a father and a mother. Children grow self-confident, strong and smart only in a full-fledged and loving family.
Both father and mother give them the life experience and forces that will move them forward and help them build the same warm family relationships in which the parents grew up.
If a child has a correct life scenario and he grows up in a full-fledged family, in which there is both a father and a mother, it means that both he and his children will most likely go well; on the contrary, if the child grew up only with his mother or only with his father, then he often forms a feeling of envy towards full-fledged families and anger at this “unjust” world. So, most likely, the life of such a child will consist of mistrust and contradictions, and both parents will be guilty of this, because they were not ready for the burden of responsibility and problems, whose name is child.
Eugene was a cheerful, handsome and generous man.
His arrival in the small village of N. was noticed by all the girls and women, and in spite of the fact that he was married, Eugene was very popular.
He led the construction of the church, often stayed at work, he had no time to return to Moscow, and therefore, Eugene spent the night a local deacon’s home. Deacon's young daughter Nadezhda, realizing that this was a chance to get out of poverty, began to woo him. Eugene did not have to persuade for a long time, and he began living in two families: one in Moscow and the other one in the village of N.
Six months later Nadezhda discovered with «surprise» that she was pregnant and all the terms for an abortion had already passed. She told Eugene about it. He made a promise to help her to raise the baby. The child was born, the construction was over… Seven years passed. Eugene continued to visit the second family, but did it less and less. And then Nadezhda decided to take matters into her own hands and announced that it was time to go to school for a child, but there was no school in the village, so he, Eugene, had to make the child go to study in the hero city of Moscow.
At that time, the question of registration was strictly, and Eugene had to confess to the double life of his legitimate wife and ask her to register her second son in a Moscow apartment. After listening to him she became indignant and demanded a divorce. They broke up.
Eugene married the second time, and the family seemed to be reunited. But the problem was only one – the son. When a scandal arose, the son always rose to the defense of his mother and shouted at his father that when he was not with them, they lived well and peacefully. The father objected to his son: «Yes, you always lived well, but, so that you know, I paid for your good life!».
«I brought you everything: a balyk, and caviar, and money!». But he constantly heard the answer: «I remember balyk and caviar, but I don’t remember you». And he had absolutely nothing to answer, the mother raised her son in constant reminder that she was a family for him, she was a person he could rely on, everything depended on her: where they lived and what they did, and the father was the phenomenon of «coming – and – going out». What kind of affection and love could there be?
The son was very jealous of his mother, and every year this jealousy did not pass, but intensified. The older the son became, the more unbearable it was to hear derogatory words at him. Eugene understood that he had made a fatal mistake, including the fact that Nadezhda’s father was an alcoholic: at the age of 20 his son began to drink. And most importantly, during the formation of the psyche of his child, his father was not there and he would never be for his son neither a friend nor authority, but only an “ATM” to serve the needs of his son and wife.
That is why I urge you not to rush and think carefully about this difficult decision. And for this, get acquainted with the methods of contraception, which will protect you from unwanted pregnancy of a woman with whom you are not ready to have children.

Male contraceptive methods. Condom – a savior from the ruined life?
The guy with the girl are having sex.
Girl:
– Dear, you just take care of me and protects from the pregnancy…
Guy (shouting):
– Take care!..
Definitely open, friendly relations between loving people are the best method of protection from unwanted pregnancy, where he and she together decide that they are not ready to have children yet, and they protect themselves together: he uses male contraceptive methods, and she uses female ones. And no one catches and deceives anyone. But such a situation is not always the case, so here are some tips supported by science and practice:
1. The safest and most effective is the use of a condom. It not only protects against unwanted pregnancy, but is also a reliable remedy for venereal diseases. Through the use of a condom the sensitivity of the penis is reduced and prolonged due to this sexual intercourse. There are isolated cases of complaints of latex allergy, but the best recommendation may be the additional use of high-quality lubricant.
2. The interruption of sexual intercourse is in second place among the methods of male contraception according to statistics. But we must remember: it is not only a reliable means of protection from pregnancy (its reliability is about 78%), but also does not protect against sexually transmitted diseases. Moreover, many men who have used this method for a long time, complained of a decrease in libido. And we should not forget about the knowledge of the woman's ovulation days, when the risk of unwanted pregnancy is especially high. It is necessary to protect carefully and it is better to eliminate sexual contact within seven days before ovulation and five days after completely.
3. If you already have two or more children and you decide that you don’t need any more, then you can use a surgical method of contraception – vasectomy. This is a quick operation that is performed within half an hour, and in two or three months after it is completed, there is no need for other methods of contraception. It is quite expensive, but its efficiency reaches 99%. But it must be remembered that the danger of sexually transmitted diseases remains!
4. Nowadays a new word has emerged in male contraception – male contraceptive pills. They contain sex hormones and contribute to the increase of testosterone in the blood, which, in turn, prevents the formation of sperm. This method of contraception
