Do you have kids of your own?

Considering modern demographics, I think I might have made the categories in this poll 0, 1, 2, and 3+.

I didn't answer the poll, because in my case any answer from 2-6 is kind of correct.

I married a divorced woman in 1984 and immediately gained two teenaged step-daughters. They're now 58 and 56.

Then my wife and I had two boys of our own. (Her doctor recommended if we were going to have any kids ourselves we'd better do it quickly, as she was already 35 when we got married.) My biological sons are currently 41 and 40. (They're so cute at that age!)

Then my oldest step-daughter went through a messy divorce and asked us to raise her daughter (my step-granddaughter) until she could get back on her feet financially. So I raised a little girl from ages 4 to 8, and she became more or less the daughter I never had. (She still feels like my sons are her "older brothers," although they're technically her uncles, and they think of her as a little sister.) She's now 36.

And finally, my wife's brother and his wife found themselves unable to care for their son, so we raised him from when he was two and a half months old to the present. He's now 19, and he couldn't be any more my son if we did actually share any DNA.

So take your pick: 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6, depending on who all you want to count.

I do and i need to DM them again. 5e 2014….party includes a goblin, a Kenku and a plant person (fairy stats). If not for the three of them i would not suffer my job and responsibilities!

My son is in college and on his semester away so will not be going to the local convention in a couple weeks. My daughter is graduating high school this year and wants nothing to do with RPGs. Same as my wife, but I still get to play with my father who is almost 80.

Two, 18 and 17, daughters. Eldest is in college, youngest still high school. Neither are tabletop gamers, though the eldest and I have played many hours of Minecraft together (and she has tons of hours in several other online games with her friends). The younger has no interest in gaming in general. Both of them think my wife and I are hopeless nerds. Grade and hobby-wise both kids would have been nerdy jocks in my day. I'd brag on them, but they both mock my wall of game books!

Well I might not know my day time talk show hosts, but I was on three episodes of Cheaters and you cant take that away from me.

My son is 20. He likes playing the occasionaly boardgame, and played some D&D when he was younger, but is no longer interested. At all.
