[quote=Anonymous]"Settling" is setting you, your partner, and your potential children up for misery. If you have interrogated why you want to be a mother and found that it is indeed something you intrinsically desire and not something you feel pulled to do just because most women do or because you feel pressure from family, then you need to explore how to make that happen for you. That may mean aggressively saving/relocating/whatever else so that you are in a financial situation where you can pursue the sperm bank route. Maybe you'll go the foster route and apply your desire to mother to children who need it temporarily. It may mean looking into unconventional partnerships and directly seeking a platonic co-parenting partner. Or maybe it will mean that you need to find other ways to have children in your life - mentoring, moving near friends or family with kids and being a really involved aunt. [/quote]
