Because I'm an older mom, I have a responsibility to my kids as well as myself. I want to be there for them.

I want to have a bunch of kids so I can boss them around.

Being a single mother was the right thing for me. But I have a tremendous amount of help from my friends. They're in love with my kids, and my kids are in love with them.

I am lucky in that I love what I do, but it can still be hard to be away from the kids for long lengths of time. At the end of the day, all I want is to be with my kids, but it's worth it to create a future for my family.

I have four kids; three girls and a boy. The oldest girl is 13, and has her own social life now, so there's a bit of begrudging cooperation there. It's tough.

My heart goes out to many women that I've met across the country who barely make enough to make a living, and they want to have kids. That's very understandable, but what do you do with the kids?

My grandmother raised five children during the Depression by herself. At 50, she threw her sewing machine into the back of a pickup truck and drove from North Dakota to California. She was a real survivor, so that's my stock. That's how I want my kids to be too.

I grew up in a big family with a lot of kids around, and I definitely want to have children as well.

I want my children to have all the things I couldn't afford. Then I want to move in with them.

I want to be in a stable relationship and have kids by the time I'm 30.
