Raise your hands if you have been approached at least 5 times in the last month by casual acquaintances wanting to know if you are “done” having children.
Raise your hands if you think it’s kind of just between you, your doctor, your spouse and God.
Raise your hands if you have already made this a serious topic of prayer and deliberation and when you get an answer, you will deal with it.
Raise your hands if you’d rather not have your medical history as a small-talk topic as a way to defend yourself when said casual acquaintance and/or stranger won’t stop badgering you.
Raise your hands if you are a really open person, but for heaven’s sake, you think there are just things that should be allowed to be personal and private.
Raise your arms if you think this raising children business is ridiculously difficult and it’s just hurtful when people out there insist that if you don’t start a child’s life out right with a medication-free childbirth and breastmilk and whatever else that you are a selfish cow.
Okay, my arms are getting tired. Class dismissed.
