You need to include the option Sometimes.

That's what I would pick because sometimes life really sucks that bad. LIke when your kid dies.

Sorry, this isn't a "have you ever wanted" poll, this is an all or nothing poll. If you have ever felt happy to be alive, even for 1 minute, the answer is no.

Then you should have clarified your question/poll. Because it looked like you were talking about a liter of puppies, or something.

Actually most of the time when I think about it (I'm the youngest of eight) I can't escape the conclusion that I just wouldn't have ever known so it doesn't matter.

THere are times I am glad to be alive, times I wish I wasn't, and many times that life seems like hard work to be endured.

It would be interesting if the people who enjoy life most of the time tend to be more prolife.

Missourian, don't you think anyone who would have answered yes, would have already committed suicide?

I have a feeling this thread is a set up for some cockamamie argument in favor of banning a woman's right to chose.

It would not have mattered to me in the least if I had been aborted, or to be precise, if the fetus that eventually became me had been aborted. I would never have been known the difference, now would I?
