If you were forced to choose the personality type you want for your child, which would you prefer and why?

INFJ, INTP, INTJ, ISFP, ISTP, ENFP, ENFJ, ENTP, and ENTJ.

Gotta love multiple choice questions. I'd name them all Duncan / Shelly Marie and get them help me start a self-sustained colony for the members of my cult like in Biodome, but first I'll have to watch that movie again because I don't remember how it ends. Did the raptors escape? If so, I'll make certain to failsafe their containment procedures.

I love kids! I think I am going to have 2 or 3 of them for breakfast. hehe.

I chose multiple personalities but I would want my kid to be ENFP or INFP so we can have that father and son or daughter connection.:happy:

I would not want an INTJ kid, they might try to kill me. jkjk:crazy: I love INTJs.:happy:

I want the girl to be INFJ coz they are cute and like cream puff tarts with glazing!

The guy could be ENTP and i'll make sure to keep his ego in check and make him a nice charming guy.

I threw in ENFJ as a uni-sex option.

INTJ: Because we kick ass
INTP: Because they kick ass

And seriously? It would be cool if they were some sort of introvert, just because they will spend some time at home.
N would be cool for the creativity. I could do lots of cool stuff with them (handcrafting, cooking and whatnot).
T and F...I don't REALLY care as long as they don't end up totally emo.
J and P isn't too important either. Though, J would be cooler, because they'd keep their rooms clean. :tongue:

I want 16 children with each of MBTI types.

I love children!



Then I'll kill them one by one.

gulp :shocked:

You wouldn't! You're just saying this so we wouldn't know you're just really soft on the inside and will be making cute maternal noises!

I took this poll in a serious way. the question is wrong to me in the following sense :
imagine you get a kid one day, right? and you've been building up all kinds of expectations around it...
-> You will of course have to completely adapt to your new born child (and also adapt it to you, naturally) and get rid of those expectations!
'cause God doesn't make children pop out just the way we'd 'want them to' ! [btw, I don't believe in God - just in case;p]
you'll just have to Get To Know It to understand it and appreciate it for what it is.
To me it seems like the more you expect, the more chances of being disappointed, or misunderstood, or misunderstanding the child itself, causing more conflicts.

So why would I want to *choose* the kind of kid I'd get -if I ever get one one day-,
if that'll just make the whole parental process way harder, plus also tougher for the kid?
I'd rather be surprised and learn from it on the go. I don't want to construct an image of a child before I even get one.

FEEDBACK = WELCOME !

I may regret saying this, but this poll question is disgusting
Wait until your first child going to kindergarten and you start to wanting more babies, then you'll be thinking about this poll... :tongue:

LOL LOL LOL

I chose INTP (because I love being an INTP ^^), INFP, ISTP, and ESTP. Honestly, I don't really have a solid reason for picking those, but I just got a "gut feeling" about it.

Haha. That baby is that one final fantasy pig or something character!:crazy:
Oh Lance. That's a MOOGLE! *sigh* -_-

Are you sure? Because I have a strong N and when I was younger, I drove my parents insane with all the forgetfulness, inability to find things two inches in front of my face, and general head-in-the-cloudedness. XD That being said, I think I turned out rather lovely, if I do say so myself :laughing:

Just thinking about that situation has me pondering about designer babies.
The thought of designer babies gives me the creeps o_O

If I was forced? Just thinking about that situation has me pondering about designer babies. And who is doing the forcing? Anyway, I'd like to have a kid with an N. We'd be able to connect in a similar fashion, thus decreasing the chances of being misread by one another or conversations going over our heads etc. I'm not picky about the other 3 traits.

I don't actually want kids, but if I had any I'd want four, so I picked four types. I selected INTP, INTJ, INFJ, and ENTP. I guess just because they seem like the sorts of children I would end up getting along with best and being most proud of, and because they seem like a group that would basically get along most of the time. I kind of wanted to pic INFP and ENTJ too, but there aren't enough kids in this theoretical family for that, so I just went with the top four.

I feel bad saying I'd prefer certain types over others, but If I could pick, I'd pick the Introverted Feelers and the Introverted Intuitives. I think I'd relate to them the easiest.

I don't think I'd mind having an ISTJ kid at all. They seem like they'd make nice, well-behaved kids.

Your such a personaliticist. Hope you got the joke.:tongue:

I simply chose all my possible preferences.... tho I only want 3. Any NF, because I'd want to have a deeper connection with them and have fun with them. ENFJ, INFJ, INFP, ENFP, ESFJ, INTP, ENTP, ISFP, ESFP. ISFPs often enjoy a simple life, yet can appreciate more than a lot of people give them credit for. ENTPs are just clever--and thats amusing (similarly with the INTPs).

Aww, screw it. Its all good.

I thought it was absolutely hilarious that the majority of the poll picked INFJ. I would not want myself as a kid. Like I gave my parents no trouble at all, but I was certainly lazy with chores[not intentionally], and didn't speak much to them.

I'd take an ESFJ. They are probably going to be the easiest.
