[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You must be from a backward country, where women aren’t valued and people aren’t free to make their own decisions regarding family size.

Welcome to the US and welcome to the 21st century.[/quote]

Male heir carries the surname in the US as well. Daughters marry into other families, sons carry on the family legacy. [/quote]

When I married, I kept my maiden name which is my dad’s last name. None of my brothers had kids. My girls have my dad’s last name hyphenated. [/quote]

I deeply regret not giving my son my last name. He is the very last boy in the family line. I wasn't married when he was born but it didn't occur to me not to give him his father's name. The divorce was final only three weeks after my second was born, but I wanted the two to share a last name.

I still feel like an idiot and wish I'd followed your idea. I am a hyphenate professionally, but use my maiden name outside of that. I'm working on name changes for both of my children.

TLDR/ I should have listened to my mother.

If the divorce wasn’t final for another 3 weeks, you were still legally married.[/quote]
