I'm 31 and never wanted children and still don't, my partner even had a vasectomy! But no, people still asks us because a vasectomy is reversable...

Reply to LPT: How to support someone grieving: the process is not linear and often takes longer than people think (even, and sometimes especially, when the relationship with the deceased was painful or estranged). A year may seem like a long time since a death, but to the grieving, it can feel very recent. by survivalothefittest

My mom died in 2012 when I (F) was 19, I am now 31 and getting through my first years of aduthood without a mom was really hard. Somedays still, the grief hits really hard. You just get used to it over time and accept it. The hardest part is missing someone you know you will never see again.
