[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look ladies, it’s all fun and games to be the “cool aunt” when you are 28 and traveling the world. Everyone looks up to you and they want to be you. Then you turn 43 and you’re still single with no kids and your career has sort of peaked, as well as your looks.

You can’t be a “cool aunt” at 43[/quote]

Right, that’s the age when the cool aunts become the cool SMBC whose nieces and nephews free babysit and who is in a place in her career to have a full time
Nanny.[/quote]

It's not really a step up to be a SMBC. Nobody is envious of that person, doing it all alone, with a fatherless child. A nanny is not a replacement for a second parent.[/quote]

Most SMBCs I know have a parent or sibling who performs the role of "second parent," in addition to a nanny. I am sometimes envious of them, because they get to be moms without having to deal with the downsides of marriage and parenting with a man, but still have the emotional support AND extra hands for childcare.

I don't have the kind of family who would support me in that way though, so it's not something I would have considered for myself.[/quote]
