were you surprised by the results wasnt Parenthood is the most overrated job in the world Its all pain and very lit tle joy Our societys heavy pressure on young couples to reproduce is hangover from the days when many hands were needed to work the farm and thousands of babies died of diseases scar cely heard of today In the early years it gave parents an ego boost to think they were molding new young life The experiences of so many of us prove that by the time that young life becomes teenager he rejects all parental attempts at molding and has no use for his square and bossy parents My husband and have no one but ourselves to blame No failed diaphragm no missed pill We actually adopted our mistake after long and happy marriage The marriage is still hanging together miraculously

Baff Yes its possible Anger can and does produce chemical changes in the ody It is also possible that you are allergic to Glorias perfume or hair sprayor her desserts In any event why dont you tell her you are still irritated because she ruined your evening bag Suggest she make it right which in my opinion is what you should have told her back in March onfidential to Need Definition For Middle
