It's Mother's Day today. I know that today should be a happy day -- a day to celebrate all mothers and what they have done for us. However, I have to honestly say that I am feeling extremely annoyed right now.
I am annoyed at every single time someone asks me when I am having a baby.
I will have a baby when I want to have a baby. I am trying to enjoy my life right now. My mood is spoiled every single nagging time I hear that question. Leave me alone. I do things on my own terms, no one else's. Always have, and always will. The more that people are annoying me with this endless inquiry, the more that I do not want to have a child. And, no, it's never too late either.
We (my husband and I) do not want the responsibility right now. We will decide when we want to have a child. We are not obligated to tell anyone when we plan to have a child. If we are blessed with a child, then, well and good. If not, it's still well and good. It is not anyone's business to decide when we should have one. We also expect that no one will interfere with how we raise our child. We do not plan to have a child and just have someone else take care of the child.
It would really be nice if this nagging stops. It used to be 'when are you getting married?' Now this. We are happy with our lives right now. And, let me emphasize, our lives. Not yours.
