Guest guest Posted August 5, 2001 Report Share Posted August 5, 2001 I don't think there's anything wrong with living just for your children if that's what you want. I'm not unintelligent (according to mensa my IQ's 155- well it was when I was 17 I think it's probably deteriorated since then LOL) have got lots of GCSE's and was expected to pursue a career playing the 'cello BUT all I've ever really wanted is a large family so I dropped out of college and got on with it. I've been told by various people along the way that I'm wasting my talents blah blah blah but so what? I want to spend my life raising my children and when that ends (I plan on two or three more well spaced children to take me into my forties) I want to get a camper van and travel with dh (who is thirteen years my senior and will have retired by then) and do the grandmother bit hopefully - and maybe write too. It's just a shame that motherhood has such a low status in our society ( Hannah, 27 Mum to Bethany 7, Lawrence 5 1/2, Verity 3, Alfie 5 months Visit me on the web at :- http://hannahshome.20m.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
