I feel exactly like you do about this sweetpea. I love kids but don't want to have any myself. Even though I know that Loverboy and I would have beautiful kids and we'd be excellent parents I still don't want any. A child would never complete my anyway if I did have one because I already feel complete.

I think it's today's society that creates the idea that hapiness equals starting your own family because it's in the society's interest that we produce a lot of children. To some extend there really is a lot of brainwashing going on in the media.. I mean just look at all those commercials including the perfect, happy family. As I see it our surroundings and society have come to expect that women automatically want children which annoys me. It's like we're not given the oportunity to seek or look for another kind of happiness without people bringing the conversation round to the establishment of a family.

IMO the result of such a pressure to start a family quickly is causing bad upbringing, a high divorce rate and the Cindarella complex.

Something horrible is happening inside of me and I don't know why. My nightly bloodlust has overflown into my days. I feel lethal, on the verge of frenzy. I think my mask of sanity is about to slip.
