39 Good Having Kids Answer


Although it may sound like a cliche, I suspect that when you have your
child you will immediately think of a million great reasons why you had
him/her. . .It's a little late for ambivalence now, isn't it? But

none. yes, they are a lot of work. yes they can be frustrating, yes they
take time and energy and money and time and time and energy and time.
But, as a fiction writer, friend, wife, daughter, etc., nothing is more
rewarding than being a mother. Besides, if you do a good job as a parent
just think of what you have offered to the world: a healthy, happy not
screwed up adult. What a treat! GIve it a whirl (you have no choice
about now anyway! might as well give it your best shot.) You will always
have doubts, that is natural, but it is a wonderful thing, being a
parent. Honest.
