You're the ONLY ONE who knows what makes you happy. Parents THINK they know what's best for us, but they don't. I get pressured a lot by my family to have kids (still). We're from Spanish, Catholic descent and not having children is almost a sin

I get the 'you have to have your children, it's not too late' sermon all the time. I've even had them say that my pooches aren't going to bring me a glass of water to bed when I'm old and sick
At first, I avoided a pregnancy like the plague, then later I tried to have a child. When I realize how tough it was, I asked myself who was I doing this for? It turned out that I was trying FOR my family...the wrong reason, so I stopped. Follow your heart, it will never mislead you
