[quote=Anonymous]I love my grown kids, they love me, I am glad they are in my life, and they are thriving wonderful, contributing human beings. But frankly, I don’t really know why I had kids. I never objectively gave it a lot of thought, which I admire the younger generation for doing. It was just sort of the expected thing, the inevitable progression. And let’s be honest, it’s hard to at times bordering on miserable. You’ll get the highest highs and the lowest lows as a parent — but you’re not allowed to talk about or admit the lows. I guess I was never one of those “OMG babies People.” Love my kids but do not love ALL kids. And I never gave a moments thought to becoming a grandmother someday, maybe because I grew up without grandparents in this country. This hunger to be a grandmother thing is just alien. I’m just happy my kids are happy, in happy relationships, with deep and strong friendship circles. [/quote]
