That must be so hard for her, living up to the responsibilities she placed on herself. Work, bitch!

Part of my decision to be CF came from not wanting to "do it all". The biggest factor was I don't like or enjoy children; but also I knew even as a teenager that I am not the type who will do well with a frantically busy life.

... One of my friend's kids participates in a horrid activity called "travel ball" where her son goes to games all over the state all weekend.
The rational for all of this is OMG MUST. HAVE. ACTIVITIES,. FOR. COLLEGE. or OMG MUST. GET. SPORTS. SCHOLARSHIP.
Let's be realistic, most of these kids aren't of the caliber to get a scholarship.

Throwing a fastball, shooting a 3 pointer, or acing a serve does not translate into anything even remotely useful in today's society. They are competitive advantages limited to their particular sports.

Not everyone has the energy or the temperment to "do it all" or "have it all". The modern world puts a lot of pressure on everyone to do it, but still people have a responsibility to think for themselves.

That phrase, "having it all" has always bugged me a little.

That phrase, "having it all" has always bugged me a little. Why does it have to mean such things as getting married, having kids, living in a house, etc.? My version of "having it all" means being personally and financially independent. That is, I am single (but in a LTR), childfree, and I don't have to work because my investments generate more than enough money to live on. I own my apartment outright and I come and go as I please, as I have for the last 7 years when I was then 45. *I* have it all. Being a parent was NEVER part of the equation. In fact, it would have drastically worsened my life, preventing me from "having it all."
