"Why haven't you had a baby?" "You should have a baby". "you'll make a great mother" or "have a baby already?"
These are some annoying questions of family/friends. I know my family really wants to see their future apo's(grandkid), niece or nephew from me. Just had a chat with my mother and nephew this morning, and as usual that same questions I got. As if its a must that I should have one, oh, don't get me wrong, it's wonderful to have a baby, of course.
But, its having a baby a must in one's life? They always says, you should have a child so that there will be someone who can take care of you when you gets old. I know, I know, they are just concerned about me.
But, should you have kids to have someone take care of you when your old? I want a baby anyway, but not for that reason. I want one to take care of, love and enjoy. I don't mean to sound harsh, but to some people that's what their selfish reasons, or for tax purposes, family manipulation tools etc. etc.Sure, its a perk to have someone help you out when you get older, but if that's the only reason for bringing a child into the world, you may check your motives. Besides, there are plenty of organizations/places that are dedicated to helping out older people who can't get along by themselves.
