I'm only just starting read this thread and am more and more shocked by the 'reasons' given for planning on having a child. The latest I have read is: And even if I do not end up with the best r/s, I still will have accomplished raising a child from cradle to college.
So that... you can have the sense of accomplishment of having raised the child.
I am just not seeing where the *child* as a separate human being with their own -enormous- needs fits into this.
I just don't think it's childrens' job to fulfill the needs of their parents and this is where I see this going.
