[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If our ancestors had been as self-centered as some of these posters, the whole human race would have died out long ago. No one ever said the point of children was to make you happy. It’s just what living things do.

OP, I do think it will get better for you once you’re sleeping again and the older one is past the dreaded 3-3.5 stage.[/quote]

Agreed. I’m astonished at all the “you get very little in return” posters. Um, that’s not the point? Everything is not all about what you can get out of it. How incredibly selfish.

[b]I can’t imagine a life of endless dining out, drinking, traveling, sleeping in. [/b]That would feel very empty and meaningless to me after a while. [/quote]

Seriously?  This sounds amazing.  [/quote]

+1  :roll:   It's nice for a vacation but sounds like a pretty empty life to me.[/quote]

Agree - I have a couple of married friends and I cannot imagine what the heck they do with all their time. In both cases the wife does not even work.....does not volunteer anywhere......what an empty, self-centered life.....[/quote]

I am one of those people pp...I was not able to have kids due to infertility (saw this thread on recent topics). I have several chronic health problems, had to stop working, get sick easily, and have to eat a restricted diet to curb inflammation. Would love to volunteer somewhere but people in the DC area can't seem to stay at home when they are sick, even adults.

Our money goes to doctors, eating fresh food, and everything it takes to keep us healthy. Was interested in this thread because I hoped it would make me feel better about the choices I had to make.

One thing: kids will know they aren't wanted, my mom tried not to let me know but she couldn't quite pull it off. Don't do this.

And some of us out here would love to adopt your kids if you don't want them.[/quote]
