You live in or near a city where - three of the potus's top advisors are female, three of the supreme court are female, and a good number of CEOs and law partners are powerful women, but it escapes your tiny mind that a woman could a) exercise the thought process to succeed in life, and b) desire to not have kids?[/quote] Has it escaped _your_ tiny mind that statistically speaking, women want kids, including some of those CEOs?[/quote] The vast majority of women want kids. And the vast, vast majority of those who think they don’t change their mind. [/quote] I'm guessing that's what every person tells a successful woman. There's nothing wrong with not having children or desiring to have them at an 'optimal' time. If I do change my mind, guess what - I have the resources to do whatever the hell I desire. :) [/quote] Maybe, maybe not.[/quote] +1. Please inform yourself and don't be so smug...you most certainly can not throw money at this and get "whatever the hell you desire". You cannot fight biology. Sure, maybe you'll be lucky and eventually have success with IVF in your forties...but just as possible, you will not have sufficient quality eggs by then, and/or your body will refuse to carry a pregnancy to term. Maybe someone would be willing to choose a middle-aged career woman as an adoptive parent...but that is unlikely given all the other options they will have. Don't be smut and don't take your fertility for granted - if you are in your 30s and know you want kids, you're dumb to wait. Dumb. [/quote] Biology is a fact. If you truly want a family don't wait. Do what you have to, don't let a man take that away. I have a friend who stupidly allowed the guys she dated and one she married decide that for her. Now she is really alone. I told her years ago, stop ALL birth control! [/quote] Please stop with your panicked messaging. No one is truly alone. If you have friends and family, you don't have to have the 'nuclear' family to be happy. A lot of the older generations realize that when the kids they raised and they expected to idolize them move hundreds of miles away or put them in nursing homes or even shocker-just live their own lives. Having children won't solve the problem that you're afraid to be alone, which I urge you to work on. Also 'stop the birth control' is a stupid plan - you'll trap someone one who despises you or end up like this woman which is fine but not my idea of happiness. https://www.cnn.com/2017/04/25/opinions/ivf-3-7-percent-opinion-lenti/index.html[/quote] You really screwed the pooch with this example. Did you even read the story? At the end she talks about the waste of time over the useless men who didn't love her. How obsessing was a big waste. Her sons are her "future and family". I guarantee if she never had kids she would be obsessing about that big mistake. Lot's of women regret the men they chose, but you hardly ever hear them regretting their children. [/quote] She also talks about how difficult it is to be a single mom, especially one of twins, from birth to their current age. There is no way I'd go through that hell especially alone. That is why she's a warning example. It shows a woman who was desperate for kids all throughout her life and now how painfully intensive the process is to raise them, care for them. Look the OP is not this woman who wants children by any means, which means its a take it or leave it scenario if she can find the husband that she'd want to raise a child with. [/quote]
