“some people who shouldn’t even be allowed near chldren, let alone raise them. Self-centeredness at its finest, “


If you consider not wanting children to be self-centered what about someone who wants only one-—or two?

Where does it end?

If someone doesn’t want children and doesn’t have them that is,IMHO, not a selfish decision——it is just good,common sense.

Thank goodness someone saw fit to take care of and raise the two of you. I hope you consider yourselves blessed, because you are blessed beyond compare, whether or not you realize it. You both were once children. You were infants, then toddlers, then youngsters, then tweens, and then teenagers before you ever were adults.

Someone, once upon a time ago, nursed you. Someone once spoon fed you, and changed your dirty diapers. You were screaming at the time, yet that person saw your pain, and changed that diaper, because you could not do it yourself. Someone put up with you during both your good and precious moments as a baby and child, and also loved you right through your really draining and difficult moments. Even if you were abused, someone LOVED YOU, our Maker.

You should kiss the ground they walk on to thank those who gave you life, and raised you. Don’t give me this cr@p about not being cut out to do the job.

It IS a hard job, and many, many times, thankless, but parenthood is the BEST JOB and the MOST MEANINGFUL JOB that God ever gave anyone to do.

I’m done trying to convey to you the preciousness of babies and children. There are so many AWESOME moments to go along with the difficult ones. I hope one day you truly understand that.

When people are self-centered, they lose out. In a big way. Trouble is, they usually don’t see it until it’s too late.
