[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]10:04 - you missed my point.  I don't care when you had kids.  I don't care IF you have kids.  I was responding to a few nasty posters who were leveling nasty accusations about career women who waited too long to have kids.  Those accusations get tired and silly.  There are plenty of young moms out there, and that's great, but for a lot of us, that just wasn't how things turned out.  It's fine if you chose to have kids early - or didn't choose and had kids early anyway - but a lot of us didn't meet the guy in our 20's, or at all.  I just think it's a silly myth that women should be blamed for their infertility because they "chose to wait" for too long - in most of the cases I know, it wasn't a choice, but a circumstance.[/quote]

I agree with you.  I have a bad habit of posting to the wrong person.  I also would much rather see somebody wait around for the right person instead of 'settling'.  The most miserable b*tches out there are the ones that 'settled' early on and then want to judge the rest of us.  I was lucky enough to meet my husband very young--but I did wait to have kids because I wanted to be as close to 100% sure that I wanted to have them.  I got a lot of pressure for waiting.  A lot of that pressure were miserable people that blindly followed societies and parental expecations of when they should have kids and procreated without thinking it through--because it was expected.  I was fairly immature so it was best for me to take the time to grow before bringing kids into my life.[/quote]
