"I feel, you see your woman just as a wife and as a mom. It always bothers when woman is defined by her relationships. She is an individual herself. Recognizing and respecting each other individuality is key to build up a good family. Either she wants to stay home and raise kids or she wants to become an activist or a corporate hot shot that must be her choice. If any woman complains that she has compromised her goal/dream because of getting married or having kids or other way around then she is not resolute enough. I have seen spoiled family of stay home wife and blissful home of working mom. Hence, woman is not solely responsible for building a good family. A good family is build up by individuals (man and woman) who share it with their attributes and understanding"

Very well said Nakkali_Keti.

"If you dont wanna have all these problems. Just dont have kids. Problem solved." You are right Violet7.

People tend to have kids because everybody around them has them. They put in more thoughts before getting a pet than before having a baby. Having a kid in life is not obligatory. But a lot people seem to feel that way.
