[quote=Anonymous]I did not find my pre-kids life meaningless. I developed really important friendships I maintain to this day. I dated and had fun and figured out what I wanted in a relationship. I figured out who I was separate from a relationship or kids. I think this is an incredibly pivotal time in anyone's life personally and especially important for women. Who am I without my parents or a guy or not being someone's mom. All that said, I really like my life with kids and am not interested in going backward in any way. The only thing I miss at times is what someone else mentioned...the lack of feeling so tied to other humans' ups and downs and emotions. It is a lot being someone's parent and from what friends tell me it doesn't go away when they don't live with you anymore either. There are days and moments when this feels exhausting and it would be nice to feel that carefree unburdened feeling again briefly.[/quote]
