[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The holidays can be a bad time if you decided not to have kids or were unable to have kids. Ask me how I know. (Not everyone can afford to adopt or find success in IVF.) I was at peace with the decision not to bankrupt ourselves to have kids, but it is hard because I did not expect to be hit with grief and regret again when my friends started to become grandparents. And it's even harder during the holidays. And I imagine, even harder if your sister has step children who did not accept her, even more so than it would be for someone like me who has no kids in my life. She has to see what she could have had, but may feel like they don't want her around. [/quote] I imagine it is no consolation, but the holidays can be hard for those who do have kids, too[/quote]
