"you dont have much time left you know....."

omg! i dont have much time left to have children!!! yes i heard all about it the past week while visiting parents/in laws/friends of parents. i'm starting grad school but noone cares about that except "how long is this program? you dont have much time left for kids, you know" and "when will there be a bun in the oven?". despite going on COUNTLESS times about how weans arent in the plans.

from the inlaws "we're building an extra room in our new house for the grandkids" and "we made the halls wide so kids can ride their tricycles around" (the thought of which makes me want to vomit in my cheerios...tricycles. IN THE HOUSE!?!!!)

bah--i love how all other accomplishments, hopes, efforts are to be diminished in the name of OMG BaYBEezz!!111

1)Hang on, 'not much time' - aren't you in your twenties or early thirties now?

2)I would consider telling them that if they're so desperate for the company of small children, to bugger off to China and adopt a bunch of them. They can take care of the trikes at Walmart.

3)I just don't get how anyone can thiink they are entitled to grandchildren. It's as obnoxious for someone to basically demand you have kids to please them as me demanding someone else not have them when they really want them. Right?

Right?yes dahling, im an old cat lady at the ripe age of 31. And the whole grandchildren thing is a little much. Like, if you want more, you shouldve a) had more or b) as you posted, adopt some weans. plenty of them need good homes. :r

its just the persistent expectation that EVERYONE must have kids. STAT. bugger all to everything else. but the boy hears none of that. cos HIS career is important. oi vay!

I get told I'm running out of time constantly.

I am not even twenty five. Unfortunately, my ovaries are in their prime. I pray that husband's sperms are inferior/my eggs don't work. :D

[Amy!]

I've been getting that a lot lately too. First it was my dad and he got told. Then my mom made some very pointed comments about her assistant who had a miscarriage a few months ago. I had politely asked if they were still trying and she said "Well yes, but there's not much hope she is already 28." This was followed by the patented you owe me grandchildren look.

My husband and I have even been having are we sure? type talks lately and the cons of having kids far outweigh the pros. If I could do it and know that nobody would ever touch me or preach to me I might possibly consider it. I understand that whole "it takes a village" bit but I would need to live in the town of Mute, Population Antisocial.

I went through the whole 'entitled to grandchildren' thing when I was 20... because I was dating a woman and when I said bisexual, my family heard gay.

Thankfully, my grandparents came to their senses, and said they realized that these images of me marrying and having kids were THEIR dreams, not mine, and I was free to do whatever I wanted. But the thought that they'd expected it, given I'd been saying no marriage, no kids since 14, kinda pissed me off.

The only good answer: Sorry, bitches. My womb is polluted.

[jeth]

^ Polluted with all of the screaming loud sex you can have whenever you want and all of the money you can spend on yourself all willy-nilly and all of the greedy, self-serving things you can do for yourself just because you feel like it?

Yeah. Womb pollution is good.

[tully]

Yes!

And drugs and alcohol and nicotine and too much Taco Bell. That too.

[jeth]

Scratch the Taco Bell and make that an extra large Pina Colada or three while waiting for a table at Applebee's and we've got ourselves a deal.

[iciclespark]

Make mine a daquiri or five while snacking on nachos at the pub!

[Kari]

Make mine a pack of Marlboro Lights, three dirty martinis and some delicious sushi. Cause, you know, the mercury in fish kills fetii and all.

[Charles:]

Wait...Denali is married?

[iciclespark]

Mmmmm sushi........

OMG you don't have much time untill the baby bombs quick.. quick......before you explode from never having 5 children that you will never be able to afford to feed and they all join the army when the turn 18!

sorry......I'm the oldest of 5 kids.....I'm extremely bitter of people who have more children than they possibly can handle.

I'm sorry to hear about this pressure.

[Cam]

We have a great excuse - the wife's equipment kills sperm so we'd need a lot of help, and even that might not work.

For the time being, I get to buy a house that I couldn't afford if I had to feed anyone else.

That's like a ... a .... superpower. From where I'm standing, anyway.

Seriously. Buy that woman a cape!!!

[Cam]

It bothered her enough to do fertility treatments with her first husband. But I'm such a child, I think she's satisfied now.

[queensiefaerie]

Tell them if you run out of time to have kids you will just steal one when you want it.
[post75] This is the best solution to the problem!
