HelloThere Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 So earlier this Sunday my mom and some friends we had over were just talking (I was in the conversation as well) and the conversation shifted to our futures and mom said that she wanted me to grow up, marry, get a job, and have kids. I told her that I wasn’t gonna have kids (I left out marriage) and then she says “ok then puppy kids!” And it just made me laugh because at least not having kids isn’t a requirement in her eyes. Or maybe she was just for the sake of the conversation letting that go but you never know. That may mean that the main reason mom would want me to marry is because I’d be lonely, not because she’s expecting grandkids from me. (I am 1 of 3 kids so she’s just ask the others. XD) 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeGens Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 You are lucky! I have a sister, but my mother still says that she wants children from the both of us, and it's really not in my plans... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean to be honest with overpopulation concerns I have plenty more reasons not to have kids. I can only really see me being a parent as a misguided step in life.

I mean she might be joking but it's always good to know that she may not hate the idea. XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
