Re: What would you do differently?
My ovaries and I have made a pact, we're refusing to bring anymore children into the world. Since we'll soon be fighting over clean water, I find it a bit irresponsible to churn out more people until we get off our butts and fix things.
However, I'm all for adoption. I'll be the 21st century Mia Farrow, 12 adopted kids!
My children will be geniuses, prodigies in their own right. That's all I'm asking for ^.^
All I want is to teach them to be open minded in all aspects of life. They'll be cultured, know how to play at least one musical instrument, multilingual, and have knowledge about many religions and at least a basic understanding of science.
I will love my children no matter what decisions they make. I won't hit or spank them, as violence breeds violence. Our household will be democratic, not totalitarian. There will be no such thing as, "because I said so." That doesn't fly with me in mature relationships, so there's no way I'd subject a smaller person to it.
