People often say that having a family makes you make safer choices. It's been the total opposite for me. It's really made me want to make bolder choices.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
A family is a risky venture, because the greater the love, the greater the loss... That's the trade-off. But I'll take it all.
A family is something that I definitely want, but I'm 26, so I have plenty of time, and I try not to kind of confuse the two because, if I'm lucky enough, I want to make having a baby a personal decision rather than a career-defined one.
Families interest me - I'm part of one; most of us come from one. And I'm curious about the choices made in life, how they affect things, and how those choices happen.
I think that for me, personally, a lot of my choices have been to do with my own issues of not feeling safe as a child and feeling a sense of stability.
I don't come from money or an educated family background or any sort of supportive family life, so all of my choices are made on my own.
Everyone in my family is a risk taker in his or her own way.
Families can be the most detrimental things to have in your life. They are sometimes the most poisonous relationships that people have. Sometimes family is the thing that keeps you from ever achieving what you want to achieve, and yet people hold it and hold it and grab it and try to fix it and twist it and turn it.
I like having a smaller family. I think the more people you have in the family, the more people there are to have problems with.
You don't choose your family. They are God's gift to you, as you are to them.
I grew up with an incredibly loving and supportive family that gave me the impression there were a lot of options for me out there.
