[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I did not mean to offend anyone. I was simply expressing my hesitance to become part of a social group that generally isn't perceived in the most flattering light when it comes to being a woman. Moms work so hard and yet seem to be so undervalued. Everything they do is "uncool" or "embarrassing." I think there's something about being a youngish, in-the-know childless woman where people treat you better. That's what I am afraid of losing. [/quote] Hahahahaha. I...what? For real, how old are you? [/quote] Haha yes. +1, this reads like a 17 year old wrote it. Sidenote, re: your second to last sentence: do you have some secret plan to remain "youngish" and in-the-know? Because I'm pretty sure you're rapidly approaching the end of those years, child or not. So go ahead and confront that loss you're so afraid of - it's happening regardless! [/quote] Also, in your early thirty, you are not “youngish” for a lot of things. I am guessing you are not married yet, so don’t worry about kids, you have most likely already missed your window. If you are 33 and single, you probably won’t be ready to have kids until 37-38... by then you have feritility issues tht will put you to 40-42. So relax... it’s your concern anymore[/quote]
