Would you exchange your being a mother with another role in life?

i also would like to have adventures, like travel and take pictures and write about my travels, thats kind of hard to do with kids... i know i sound like a horrible mother, but i really do love my kids

Yeah, you don't sound horrible. I had mine young (at 19), so there's a lot that you can't do with kids that everyone else your age is doing. That doesn't mean I'd trade my baby for the world, but I probably should've waited. I'm the one who would come and go, sometimes up and leaving for a week at a time, but I can't be all that spontaneous with a kid, lol. I figured out there really is such a thing as planned spontanaeity! And I really disagree with the next person's comment that a woman cannot be a complete woman without kids. Some women are miserable with kids, so somehow I doubt she feels very complete. You shouldn't look to your kids to complete you; that's asking way too much of anyone, much less a child. If you're incomplete without your kids, you may have bigger issues buried. Blessed Be

i understand what you mean by you shouldn't have gotten married. it's just that there are some made to be single with kids. what i mean by that is one can live life with her/his kid alone, raise him right without a partner. some are just too independent that having a partner is hard to live by. being a mother is alright though it's a tough job. being a mother is one's pride.

I know exactly what you mean by you love being a mother to your children. I've been tired of answering forever questioning of my daughter. But I was glad to hear that for I know how good she would survive in this world. And it is a sign of intelligence in kids. I know she'll survive the tests in life. I'm glad to have a strong and determined daughter. She has her own goals in life and is so determined to reach them...But the most important thing I love most is when she tells me that she loves me and I know she cares for me a lot. And she don't want anyone hurting me. I'm just to proud to say that I was able to raise her properly, not that i'm being conceited or anything. It's just too flaterring when people say that I was able to raise her properly. It's so good to hear and my heart beats too fast.

Hiii... Hey thanks for the neat response, you just keep being yourself and feeling the way you do about your daughter... All the best to both of you... Awsome!!!

Every mother would say that they're grateful to be on this earth as long as their kid is alive. And they would not exchange it for anything in this world.
