[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, you at least twice mentioned that raising children is difficult and hard. If you raised your children with this attitude, why are you expecting them to have children? My kids are still in school, but I tell them constantly what a joy it is to have children and that my life would never be as fun without them. I want to make sure that when they become adults, the daily difficulties of raising a child wont stop them from having one. I want them to see a bigger picture of raising a child.[/quote]

I did not find raising children to be difficult and never said that to my kids.  Others fell differently.  I had a great time with my kids, even when they were newborns although I have to admit that my daughter was a bit trying as a teenager.  I do realize that it is a huge commitment to have children and not something that everyone is willing to do, and I fully support that choice.  My adult children know that my husband and I really enjoyed them, and still do.  But I have also really tried to let them make their own choices and not project what I want on them.  [/quote]
