On the other hand, if we think about it positively, they're allowing eight couples who are childfree-by-choice to remain so, and they appear to be working on their ninth. Very public spirited, like.

Mind you, I *bet* that woman is looking forward to the menopause with a passion which verges on holy.

Um, no. I'm sorry, that logic does not work for me. How does this family excuse me and others from wanting to remain childless? I don't need an excuse for that. Not everyone is obligated to procreate, thank merlin.

I get the funny feeling that she'd like to keep having babies until she croaked, but that's just my take.

Well, it's what she says!

I think Meg was intending to be ironic...

[ciel_vert]

Ah, ok. One of those things that doesn't come across well on the internets unless you know the person.

[celandineb]

*g* Yeah, I know... that's why I mentioned it. I've known Meg for more than 5 years and she just wouldn't mean that seriously, but I could see that I could easily come across so, and I wouldn't want that misunderstanding! (So hopefully she'll look and see my reply to you...)

[ciel_vert]

I just replied to her about reading her tone wrong, so she'll definitely get that. Thanks hon.

Cel has informed me that I probably read your tone and intent wrong and you were being ironic in your post. I can totally see that now, and I'm sorry I took it the other way, but not knowing a person can do that. :)

Hey, no worries. We can't all know everyone, after all (even though I tend to forget that... my apologies to you as well, for writing something which probably seemed rather sarcastic on first reading).
