mother psyched that I am hoping to be an unwed motherSo . . . I desperately want children, but I am single, 33, and own my own law practice which keeps me very busy. I just had a conversation with my mother that I have been psyching myself out about for over a year.
I am planning to have a baby on my own.But work keeps me very busy, and I don't want to hand my child over to daycare. And she told me that not only is she SURE I can do it on my own, but that she would BE THRILLED to provide daycare four days a week! It will mean moving closer to her and further from my court . . . but, oh my goodness am I thrilled.(It isn't really even that I am too surprised that she wants to provide babysitting, but to hear her excited for me and so supportive makes it seem much less crazy of an idea. I cried.)

Oh, and Isha, yes, I want a cookie! I thought it was funny then too. You weren't being an azz, you were just responding with BOTB's general dislike of strangers who don't ease their way into the community. Only the posts about it being wrong to raise a child without a father annoyed me. But I will admit it; I was laying out a lot of bait.
