[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP you had kids for you.  You find meaning in life and control your life.

If your kids don’t want kids that’s none of your business.

That said, I agree with the PP that said if I don’t have grandkids I will spend every penny I earn.  My childless kids (if that is their choice) can earn their own way through life.  Why should I give them that bit extra help if there is no continuity in the generations, especially since they would be making an adult decision not to have kids.  Now if they do manage to reproduce, they will inherit handsomely.  And. . . no, I will not tell them this; my money; my business.  Now if I look at it as family money then it’s family business, but that requires grandchildren for me.[/quote]

Just like you are free to do with your money as you wish, your kids can choose what to do with their bodies as they wish. How would you even know if they struggle to have kids? [/quote]

You are right that my money, my choice! And their body, their choice!

It's really not that simple because there are many ways to have kids that don't involve their bodies.

I would know if they struggle to have kids because we have a close, warm, loving relationship.  And yes, I would financially help them to have children by any means they want - IVF, adopting, surrogate, whatever.  If I get grandkids (or have potential to) they will get the family support I feel is necessary for healthy child development.[/quote]

If you have daughters, offer to pay for her to freeze her eggs.  My friend is doing this now for her daughter who is in her early twenties, just as insurance. [/quote]
