[quote=Anonymous]My mother never thought it was the right time for me to have kids. I had the first in grad school at 25 and the second as a stay at home mother at 30. She did not approve of my choice of husband anyway, so kids with "that man" just weren't going to make her happy.The reality is that she would only have been happy if I had replicated her life exactly, with the same type of husband holding the same type of stable job. Anything that I do differently from her is "risky", "unwise" and "but have you thought about if X, Y, Z happened?". And she wonders why she's been held at arms length all these years. [/quote]
