[quote=Anonymous]I knew I wanted to be a mom. With hindsight I see how I could have had a fulfilling life without children, but I’m not sure I could have seen it if I’d never had them. I do think all styles (no kids, one kid, 2 or more kids...) have pros and cons. My 7 year old tells me she’ll never have children - it hurts and is a lot of work and you don’t get to do what you want to do because you have other people to take care of. (My younger daughter is 3.) I tell her she can choose for herself someday but, for me, it reminds me of the monkey bars. Pre-covid she would do the monkey bars over and over and over. She’d fall and get bruises, she’d get blisters, she’d say she was really frustrated and needed to go home...then the first thing she’d say when she woke up was “can I please do the monkey bars today? I loge them so much and really want to go.” [/quote]
