SERENA WILLIAMS: I WANT TO HAVE KIDS BUT AM TOO FORGETFUL

Tuesday, Feb 09 , 2010 9:58:am by admin FILED UNDER Baby Yearns

serenaTennis star Serena Williams wants to start a family, but fears that her bad memory will make her an irresponsible mom.

She says, “I would love to have a baby… But I have two little dogs I take care of and they’re so cute, but sometimes I forget them. One time I was in the locker room… I was busy and I left and I was in the car driving home and I was like, ‘Oops!’ I definitely don’t need any kids because I forgot my dog.”

But bad memory isn’t the only obstacle preventing Serena from having kids.

“Every time I see a woman walking around pregnant, I’m like. ‘Oh my god, I could never do that.’ How are you walking? I look at them and my back starts hurting!”

All the same, the tennis superstar is looking forward to one day becoming a mother.

“That’s as far as I’ve gotten with that (having kids) but eventually, maybe one day I’ll get there. That would be awesome.”

    Somehow I just don’t really care one way or the next about her mommy plans. Good she is at least giving it some thought about what it will take before just jumping in.

    Will give her much praise for her skills on the court.

        PlainMean, I just blurted out what came across my mind. BCK has become one of my fav blog spots these days, but sometimes certain stories are put up and I’m like, MEH. This just happened to be one of them. Sorry Serena. You are still my girl ON the tennis court.

    Lol, I am so forgetful too but I never forget my kids or neglect their needs. Imagining having kids and actually having them is very different…for most responsible people. They really become your top priority in life.

    Add me to the forgetful list. I seriously have a problem with short term memory LOL. But yeah…I never forget my child. There is a bond there that you have with your child that you don’t have with your pets. It does not compare. But it’s a funny interview anyway. You really do not know what it feels like to have a child until you have one and it’s good to respect that it’s a great responsibility.

    If you are a selfish person, you should not have any children because it will not prevent you from being that way. You are what you are. Selfish parents usually allow their children to go without things they want alot.. their children usually suffer, may even steal due to their not getting alot of the things they need and want at home. So, serena,, don’t tell me you are the selfish type and that is what you mean by stating that you are too forgetful to have kids.
