I don't think *all* parents are overly indulgent of their children, but I would tend to argue that *most* are... That's where stereotypes get their start, and unfortunately when you fit into a demographic, you're going to rub up against those perceptions

I hope I didn't imply the opposite, that people *without* kids are pathetic or in denial or deprived, with my comment about "place of fear." Just relating my own experience of knowing I wanted to have kids but being afraid to do it.

I think it's bullshit that people don't respect your choice not to have kids. But what I was ranting against was the lack of mutual respect. I hope I didn't sound like I was saying that people who *don't* have kids suck -- what I think sucks is the judgemental attitude about my choice, which means we are in perfect agreement.

Trust me, I don't think it's always a joy to wake up to my children -- especially when I want to get bizay with my husband but we're thwarted by the pitter-patter of little interlopers. Anyone who tells you that children are 100% joy and fulfillment all of the time is deluding themself and trying to do the same to you.

Oh no, I didn't mean to imply that I thought you were complaining about folks w/o kids, I just wanted to point out that no matter what you do, you'll rub up against the same bullshit from somebody out there who thinks they know your life better than you do... That really gets to me, I don't judge folks for having kids or not having them, we all make our choices on how we choose to live our lives, and none of us will ever get away without being judged for those decisions, unfortunately... In a nutshell, I was trying to say that I understand where you are coming from by being on the other side of the fence and voice the fact that I hear ya sister b/c I hear the same crap from the same sort of folks just with a different flavour, is all. My "rarrr" is reserved for the jerks who judge and speak out without knowing.

You and my friend Janis are the only people who have ever admitted that raising kids isn't all sunshine and rainbows - I appreciate and respect that sort of honesty, for it is a rare thing to be sure.
