People had always vaguely mentioned that when you have children, how part of your life would stop. But they don't say that some other extraordinary part of your life opens up.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Having children is life-changing, to state the obvious. It's a gigantic shift in your life and I welcomed it.
You always hear people say that having kids changes everything, but you can't fully realize it until you have children yourself.
Having children makes you see the world in a completely different way. When you're responsible for those little lives, you can't slough it off or forget about it until later.
The best part of my life is having my kids.
Having children is exciting. Life puts the past into perspective.
One of the biggest things that happens to many people when they have kids is that you suddenly realize that you're not going to last forever. You know there is another generation who are the heroes of their own stories, and that is humbling.
The moment you have a child, in an instant your life is not for you, and your life is completely, 100 percent dedicated to another human being, and they will always come first. It changes you forever. It changes your perspective, and it gives you a nice purpose and focus.
After having children, life becomes about living beyond yourself; about being bigger and better.
A lot of things you see as a child remain with you... you spend a lot of your life trying to recapture the experience.
Why did I not stop to have children? I suppose because the opportunity didn't present itself. Yes, many women feel they are not complete without having children, but I have different creative outlets.
