Our only regret is that now we only have two children. I know the two remaining kids mourn every day, and always will.
I still wouldn't have traded it for anything, though. Breeders rule!!!!
Another compelling scientific reason to murder our unborn. (heavy sarcasm)
I guess all my life I've been around the wrong people. People who love their children and wouldn't want a life without children. People whose children brought them great joy and happiness. As someone who only has step children, they have brought me joy and happiness.
If they have friends, family, and they’re happy, why feel sorry for them?
The oldest child in my family was 18 when I was born and I have a younger sister who is about 17 months younger than I. People would argue with my mom that we were not her children but her grandchildren! People!
This is really making me look forward to the next few years. I have 13 year old and 11 year old twins.
My son will have 3 teenage girls at the same time:’) I enjoyed most of the teenage times too though. That’s not to say that there weren’t days that I thought about opening the door and telling them to go. It’s like they were either on top of the mountain or down in the valley and their fuse was extremely short..
I was the oldest of 5 girls. Stair steps. I spaced mine 4 years apart so they wouldn’t be so close and fight. Right...The oldest and the youngest fought or ganged up on the sandwich child. Mommmmmmmmm!!!!
BINGO - and it's why narcissistic liberals have fewer children. They're always in search of their inner child and don't need competition from a real child... Sad.
Hey prof Sherlock, it is not the place of your children to make you happy.
Herr professor seems to be an advocate of the zero population fantasy that has been lectured to us by the academic elites since the 70’s. Of course they fail to understand that Western civilization will be buried under a flood of human beings (Africans, Mexicans, Mid-Easterners) that didn’t get the memo. Europeans will disappear within a generation because of this attitude. Children are work, but so what, raising them is wonderful for anyone that is willing to put their heart into it.
Because their life has become centered around everyone else’s problems. The one couple only talk about their rich friend and his marital woes.
What does that have to do with the fact they they don’t have children?
When I’m in a mall all the parents of anything old enough to walk seem like depressed zombies.
Obama seems to attract lots of airheads to his side.
Don't. I can assure you we are not "seemingly happy." It is more akin to "wild, giggling bliss."
