seven children? Goodness, then I definitley don’t need to have any. You balanced out the numbers for me.

The world was a lot different when my parents had me. I don’t think that the world today is a very safe place for kids.

Also, too many parents have children for their own uses without being ready. That is not fair to the kids.

However, I am sure that you and your husband are wonderful and committed parents, and I am grateful that your seven will be taking care of me in my Golden Years.

My Pleasure.
You are right though, too many look at children as possessions and try to relive their glory days through them. Our goal is to raise them to be thinking, independent, hard working adults who appreciate this nation and the freedoms of a Representative Republic (so far, so good...one is mostly grown, 3 others are high teens, 3 under the age of 10)
