Children are not for everyone...but it is interesting in that in the past year, I have talked with at least 4 friends (far left liberals) who were in the final stages of life. They had lived fast and loose and had a great time. But now surrounded by all their stuff and great memories - they were all so BITTER. They were all looking for a legacy. And yes - none of them had children.

Funny you would say that, check the Keywords I added with the original article post.

" they were all so BITTER. They were all looking for a legacy. And yes - none of them had children."

We could have told them that. Some of us tried.

I'd say that has more to do with being liberal than with not having children. I have known several elderly women who either never had children (because they couldn't) or lost their children early on (one lost all 3 before they were teenagers - and she lived to see the medical breakthroughs that would have cured them). None were bitter. They were all active in their church and community and had many friends who looked up to them as mom-figures. Of course, they were believers in God, not government.
