Everyone Must have More Children!

Everyone Must have More Children!

So what are you waiting for? go and have more people, people!



I read this arcticle and I have to say it made me think. Our society doesn't exactly like children at all. 40+ work weeks, dual family mother/father working or single parent working.

Social Security??


I don't think so...

So the population is going down. Where are we at now, 5 Billion people on the planet? 2050 is not looking good.

Bottom line for me is if I knew what I know now I may have spared my kids but since they are here my life now is trying to make it up to them since they never asked to be brought here...
Now if we were all living in the Garden of Eden well that is a diff story.

China don't you think about that stuff in regards to your kids when you look down the line? (maybe I took a look too far down the line for too long?) hehe

Dor, I did once, and only once. When my mom died, I told my dad that if I knew what pain they'd eventually have to go through..I would have never had them. He held me and said.. Please, don't think that way, You loved mom, why would you want to deny your kids that kind of love?

I don't think my role as a mother is to try and make it up to them.....My role is to do the very best I can.

Nah you will do fine China w/ the girls silly, guess that's about all we can do is try our best, that part is not the prob for me I can deal w/ doing the mom thing it's the other external things I have no control over that scares the hell out of me and makes me sad when I think of them in this world.

As for right now all I'm thinking is that these two guys are lil pacmans in disguise! (just got back from taking them out to eat)

G'night China KISS
