guppie01 0 #1 June 28, 2011 I'm 41 and I don't have any children of my own (1 step-son). At this stage in life, coupled with the fact my husband has had a vasectomy, it's not going to happen and I'm ok with that. So many people find this shocking... Curious if I'm that much of an oddity... g"Let's do something romantic this Saturday... how bout we bust out the restraints?" Raddest Ho this side of Jersey #1 - MISS YOU OMG, is she okay?

lawrocket 3 #17 June 28, 2011 It's not abnormal. Indeed, evenm as a parent I have absolutely zero issue with those who do not want kids so long as theyu are honestabout it. Kids really do require complete changes to life. There are plenty who are happy with their lives - my best friend among them. I take issue with anybody who would attempt to foist their ideas of happiness on others. It is no less tolerable for anyone to say that it's abnormal not to want kids as it is for someone to say it is abnormal to want them. Anybody who would seek to make you feel bad about it then refer them to me and I'll let them know that a father of three thinks they are out of line. My wife is hotter than your wife.

I must help keep its integrity Well, truth be told, I wanted them badly when I was younger, however the ex-husband kept saying the time wasn't right. In retrospect it was probably a good thing we never had kids together. Now, the Step-son is starting college this fall, I'm so content with being with my honey and spoiling the nieces, nephews & grandbabies (if they should happen). g"Let's do something romantic this Saturday... how bout we bust out the restraints?"

futuredivot 0 #25 June 28, 2011 Not so much-my wife and I both like kids but when we found out that it would be doubtful that we would have any, I got clipped. We thought it best (and it was) to make peace with the way things were and plan out lives accordingly.You are only as strong as the prey you devour Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
