[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some of us can't have kids due to infertility, and don't want invasive IVF. It's a lot of money for something with no guarantee. I've figured out how to give my life meaning even without being able to have kids. I'm sure, with some therapy like me, you can figure that out without grandkids. [/quote]To clarify, I love my kids and will always love them no matter what they do, whether it's their choice or not. I will also always support them emotionally. But financially only if I benefit also. Does that sound cold, or are you grown adults expecting to still be babied by your parents? Especially the PP who's crying about how her mother didn't give her attention until she had her own kid. Some of you still have some maturing to do.[/quote] That's fine. Use your money how you want. But if you want grandkids, you might want to let your kids know that you will loan them or give them money if they need it for IVF and infertility treatments and/or adoption. Lots of people are having infertility issues, as our food and water supply gets more and more messed up. Also remember that the younger your kids have sex, the more likely it is you will be a grandparent earlier. So if you want to be grandparents, encourage your kids to date etc... [/quote] Wait, what? Encourage promiscuity to ensure grandchildren? Odd. [/quote] Well, sex is how you get grandchildren. And "encouraging kids to date" is not promiscuity. My parents activity stopped me from dating and I left home as soon as I could. Same with my siblings. We weren't supposed to date until we graduated from college and got a job, and absolutely not have sex or get pregnant before marriage. I was so terrified my parents would pull me out of college if I got pregnant that I waited until after I graduated and was employed, and out of their house before I had sex. And guess what? Didn't find anyone to marry until I was in my thirties and already unable to have kids. And then, guess what? My parents only had one grandchild they were too old to enjoy. Didn't live to see him grow up. [/quote]
