Kids…We Have Them…Now What?!

article image placeholderUploaded by @TiffanyRichie
Now what are we going to do with this time? So my question to you and the question to myself is now that we're here, now what? Yes, all this stuff is going on in the world now what? Are we going to keep complaining and talking about it and watching videos on social media and passing stuff around? Are we going to continue to be a part of the problem? Are we going to continue to watch the problem or figure out how are we a part of the solution?

Thoughts on having children. #kids #children #parenting #family

To a couple who doesn’t want to have kids

Hey there. You did this in the Q and A format, so the reply is actually a question. So I'm going to ask you to answer a couple of these questions, or maybe other people can answer these questions too. I have two questions and I'll do two replies. This question is if you met a young couple right now who said to you, we're not having kids because the world is messed up and we're scared, I would love for you to speak to that couple

So I would just encourage them to not allow all of the negative going on around them to cause them to not have children. And then I would ask them that if everything going on in the world would cause them stress and anxiety about being a parent, then no, don't have any children. Because if it's going to cause that much stress, that much of a burden, that much anxiety, then don't put that burden on you. Don't put that stress and anxiety on you

The meaning of life for you as a parent?

And a second question I have for you with regard to you said, we all have a purpose, we all have a meeting, a meaning. I believe love is powerful, and children bring love into the world because of their innocence and sort of the tabla rasa of their essence. They're so new. Everything about them is new
