Parents always have an expectation to become grand parents before they kick the bucket...<br />But the responsibility always lies upon us, the wannabe (or not) parents of the future...<br /><br />I, for one, surely respect your decision Tanu...<br />But from my POV, parenthood is one experience of the lifetime that does change two people's life...<br />Now whether the change is for good or for worse, depends entirely on the two individuals in a wedlock...<br /><br />IMO, no one should base any percentage of their decision looking at another couple (or individual).Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03399360643822575850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22555281.post-47916464461256427842006-10-18T19:42:00.000+05:302006-10-18T19:42:00.000+05:30tanushree,

This is the correct time in our life when we can bring up a child, so god gave us one' <br />I was trying to find words to reply for a one whole minute...and then told him, 'That's all very good, but if you leave your birth control to god, I am sure he would give you a lot more children than you want'.Aparnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17465535925292456208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22555281.post-41588904259810490932006-10-10T12:26:00.000+05:302006-10-10T12:26:00.000+05:30with low proliferation of birth-control methods am...with low proliferation of birth-control methods among the commons, no one actually thinks a child can be 'planned'. its something that inevitably 'happens' over a year or so give or take year ;)<br /><br />now when you say you have 'chosen' to be childfree for now; the question they ask might actually be an euphemism for 'oh! is something wrong? have to tried all methods possible for child birth?'<br /><br />and of course, the general concept is that women must bear children before they hit 30. so there goes the epitaph on my logic of child birth.lionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00427980527461898370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22555281.post-54042563676958260842006-10-10T12:18:00.000+05:302006-10-10T12:18:00.000+05:30yeaa...very true....but the indian society is defi...yeaa...very true....but the indian society is defined by phases in life...when u finished ur college and get yourself a job, the question pops out on marriage and soon enough once ur married it is about kids<br />we as a couple gave it a thought for 6 yrs pre and post marriage and have decided to be "childfree" as you concot...what do people gain by pushing you towards a child...i guess its because then they can happily identify themselves with you...it is conformance to standards...they do not realise that standards make them mediocre....the decision to be childfree is probably the toughest decision to take....u need to know ur partner too well to go down that road....and ofcourse !@#$ the society....cheers, SASpiralarchitecthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00868720391032694468noreply@blogger.com
