[quote=Anonymous]One more major point from me (immediate PP): *if* you decide not to pursue having kids or if you find yourselves unable to do so, you may find yourself perpetually defending your choice to others. Don't waste emotional energy on that. If it's truly your decision not to have children, that's your business, and it's a decision you can embrace. If you're unable to do so despite your desire, that's still your business, and while you will come to terms with it, you will need all your emotional energy focused on accepting that course, not defending it. I spent many, many years fending off comments and criticisms (however well-intentioned) from parents, family, colleagues, friends, even strangers: I wish I'd spent that time and that energy on other, more productive things. Good luck![/quote]
