Q & A September 29, 2005
Posted by spacemom in : Life...otherwise , trackbackOk guys, enough quietly reading and not responding.
I was cutting the lawn today and thinking. The kids are wearing me down, but I thought of my favorite question, “Why did I decide to have kids?”
To be perfectly honest, I still don’t know. There was some sort of drive (probably biological) and it just hit me that it was time to have kids. When the infertility set in, I had many thoughts about this. Do I need to have kids? (yes) Do I need to have bio-kids? (no) How far am I willing to go to have bio-kids? (IVF, never got to it). But it doesn’t answer the question, WHY? Now, Dr. Jay is far more together on this. He wanted kids to experience it all. He feels that life needs to be experienced and raising children are one of those experiences that one should do. He claims to be selfish, but I find this a very neat reason. I still ponder this question..
So for those readers who
- are parents OR
- are planning to be parents
WHY DO YOU WANT TO HAVE CHILDREN?
