[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Three of my friends are celebrating the birth of a second grandchild in each family. I am happy for them, but the pain is real. They enjoy watching their kids enjoy their kids, they get to be a part of the next generation, watching it all unfold, loving these new little creatures into the family. Everything stopped on a dime in our family, and no, I don't think my kids are having a better life than their friends who have kids. They are missing out on so much and I can see the wheels turning in their heads when they see their friends enjoying their expanded families- subtle comments, wistful stares, but those ships have sailed and that's that. [/quote] YOU don't think your kids are having a better life. That's the key here. What YOU think is irrelevant. It's THEIR lives. Another selfish parent who just wanted kids to live vicariously through, not raise to adultfood to make their own choices. [/quote]
