If I don't have a child will I be missing out on life?
I've emotionally been on the fence about this subject in the past, so here's my logical approach - a pros and cons list! Please, feel free to add to it, moms!!! I'm quite sure I won't know everything to put down, since I haven't had any children! :)
PROS
Unconditional Love
Family Legacy
Family Fun
Support
Creating my very OWN family to spend a lifetime with
So many unexpected funny moments... I'll most likely lose count
Co-creating life with the person I'm in love with, whom I know would be an excellent daddy.
CONS
Lack of sleep
Money
Hard Work
No more time to be selfish
Diversion away from career (at least for a little while, which is a big deal in the film biz)
Won't go on as many vacations (very possible - at least for a while!)
Life Style Change - all about what's best for the kiddo
May cause some stress in marriage (so I've heard!)
Please, moms, help! Won't you add to the lists? :)
On second thought, if I have to make a list about it, maybe I'm NOT READY! I've never made lists to do anything in my life, except go to the grocery store.
