Multiple Children Posted: 02-12-04 15:07pm
This message is for some of you girls out
there, you know who you are.
I was wondering how do you girls have time
for anything with so many kids to deal
with. I don't want to offend anyone or
for anyone to take this the wrong way.
But how is it that you girls are soo young
and have more that one child. I mean i'm
25, married with the support of my husband
and I find it hard. I've read that
someof you are single mothers and some of
you have different fathers, like I said
nothing is wrong with that. But with the
economy being so hard and things being so
expensive, how you do it. I'm a college
student who was told that I couldn't have
any children and with all of that being
said. I still somehow manage to concieve
two children. My husband works all day
while I stay home with my son. When he
comes home I go to school. I'm
physically drained as it is now. I have
no idea what i'm going to do with another
one. I'm not saying that I don't want my
second child, I couldn't be happier. But
i'm working on my teaching degree and my
school work is so time consuming, I guess
I just want to know how do you do it. I
want to prove my mother wrong that I could
have another and still finish school.
P.S. I hope I didn't offend anyone.
I've read some of the arguments you guys
have had.

To be honest its plain old hard work! I
have 3 children ages 7, 3 1/2 and 11
months. I had my first son 4 days after I
turned 16. My second at 19 and my baby at
22. Yes it is definately hard. But I
work hard, I graduated high school and
continued on to college until my husband
passed away and I could work and go to
school. I don't take any offense to what
you said. It was a very logical question!

I read about what happened to you
yesterday. I wish you the best for the
rest of your life. What happened to you
left me so sad. I thought I could wrtie
something nice to you. But I really
don't know what to say, but i'm sorry for
your loss.

I like the hard work! I think my kids are
great and my boyfriend does anything and
everything to take care of us and give us
everything we need. I have a lot of
support from my family and they help me
with the kids when I need it!
