[QUOTE="BadgeBunny, post: 1517762, member: 1242"] This is gonna sound odd coming from a woman (typically it is the woman in the bunch that says having kids were the defining moment in her life, no?) but it was not having the boys. Maybe that was because I was the oldest of 7 and had already spent my entire existence raising kids. My mom figured that when she popped the little buggers out her part in raising them was done. We were all just a buffer between her and divorce court (What man can afford child support for 7 kids?). For me it the realization that it was not my job to fix everything for everybody else. Once I came to that realization I dropped about 200 pounds of dead weight (actually more like 1000 pounds ... deadbeat family can sure weigh you down) and got on with the job of living my life. It's been a pretty decent ride since then. [/QUOTE]
