You HOPE they'll come visit you when you're old. I work as a nurse aide in a home and I can tell you that most do not come to visit :( The rare exception is this one lady that had six children and they come most every day to see her. I just wonder if they have the time to come to a home why they can't take care of her at home. Everyone is busy busy busy. I used to want children, A LOT but it's costs money to raise children. I rather not raise a large family the way I see other women raising families. A lot of the women around here have a lot of kids fast and young then get really fat and old EARLY, it's so sad.

I worked in nursing homes when I was young...and though it is not always true because circumstances beyond control sometimes prevail, one gets the old age one deserves.

Have a flock of children...breastfeed and lose weight (just keep the outgo more than the intake) and be active with them while you are young.

There are no guarantees when raising children, but if you raise them with love, respect and discpline, they will eventually come back to the place they started, home.
