Who would you like to see have a child.
No one comes to mind at present. In my opinion, most the the X-women, save for Storm/Emma, are in their 20s:
(My approximate ages)
- Hope - 17
- Jubilee- 21
- Monet - 22
- Siryn - 23
- Kitty - 24/25
- Rachel Grey - 24/25
- Rogue - 27/28
- Psylocke -29/30
- (Adult Jean would be around 32, IMO)
- Emma - 33
- Storm - 35
Most are too young to have children at the moment and I don't really see how it would anything of value to their characters. Then there's the issues of the ageing of the child in the comic etc.
I don't think age really matters, in real life there 15 years old have kids. I would like Rogue or Storm to become mothers and raise there child in the present time comics.
Well, considering that Kitty's aged maybe a maximum of 10 years since she was introduced over 30 years ago I don't think it's viable to have a child growing up in real time in the comics. If this were to be the case, your chosen X-Woman would be pregnant for three years worth of reading.
For most of her history Rogue has barely been able to control her powers, I don't think throwing in a kid on top of that would help her. Moreover, Neither Storm nor Rogue have partners at present. And what about the practicalities of having a child as a superhero? What about the added dangers to the child?
Also, children in comics are inherently boring/annoying. They could either be a) average or b) god-like/supersmart (See Richards children).
These sort of things work in alternate reality stories, but not in present MU.
So, no, I don't want any X-Woman to have children at the moment and, in addition, I don't think any of them are in a suitable position to have children.
