I absolutely love your honesty. Your willingness to put yourself out there and then not get defensive when people are a little bit harsh in their opinions is exceptionally rare.
Since I love children so much, it’s a little heartbreaking to hear your yearning. The one encouraging thing I can say is that you are insanely brave and you are an exceptionally clear thinker. I wish you the very best on your journey.
- actfrench 4y agoYou’re the best. It is a lot of ups and downs and when people like you are kind and encouraging it makes a big difference. One thing I am grateful for is that as a teacher and an edtech entrepreneur I am fortunate to spend a good deal of time with children of my friends and customers and I love them all the more not having kids of my own. I’ve been fortunate to make some very deep friendships with young children , especially during this pandemic and I think that because I didn’t have my own it gave me more time and space to really grow close. So there’s always a silver lining. Plus, I don’t have to change diapers or defuse tantrums which is great :)
- tomcam 4y agoWant to know how much I enjoyed kids? Due to having a couple of handicapped kids I had to change diapers for 16 years straight. But somehow I never minded. So not even that needs to be a deal killer! Much love to you.
- actfrench 4y agoSomeone once said to me, if anyone knew what it was really like to have kids, no one would ever have them! But then after you have them, the LOVE is so great. Thank you for being kind and for the love you bring to your beautiful children. I am sure they bring and will continue to bring much love back into the world. Much love back to you, Tomcam.
