[quote=Anonymous]Do people think about how things will be with kids when? When I met DH and we started dating, no, I didn't think about what our life would be like with kids. We were young. I thought about whether we would stay together. I thought about whether we would marry. I didn't want to marry him until I was sure that our life priorities were the same, that we wanted the same things and conceptualized those things in the same way. You shouldn't marry someone who wants to have children if you don't want to and vice-versa. You shouldn't have children with someone who isn't interested in raising them if you want an equal partner. If you want to quit working and stay home with kids, you should communicate that to your potential partner in advance and should absolutely not have kids until you've resolved who will care for them. Most young people who are falling in love do not know the first thing about what life with kids is like.[/quote]
