I think I'm a not-unattractive guy as an adult, but looking at pictures of me from about 2 to about 14 makes me shudder, and not just because I grew up in the 70s and those pictures often prominantly feature polyester.
Everyone worries about what their not-yet-conceived children will be like. Almost everyone is pleasantly surprised.

ADD and ADHD runs in my family the same way teeth, feet and organs run in most. My wife's family is either creepy smart and attractive or total fuck-up disaster. My guess is that'll create a child of average intelligence with no interest in any endeavoirs involving protracted paying of attention (I believe Plated once described me as sounding like a drunken aerobics instructor). If the kid's ugly to boot, he's doomed.
