Split tongue/ body modified parents?

Hello, I’ve been flopping back and forth on the decision to split my tongue for over 5 years. My main worry is that finding a partner would be harder with a split tongue. Also as someone who wants a family, what does one say to a child about getting mods? Do kids ever notice and get scared? Wondering if there’s any split tongue parents here? Or parents with other heavy mods? How has your experience been in this regard? I don’t want to get something that might ruin my prospects and negatively impact my life… but I feel that I’m going to continue chasing this idea because I think it’s cool and I seem to want it.
