I kind of want to know what precipitated her high opinionon her assassination skills.
I love my nieces and nephews, the best part of getting to watch them over a weekend is that I get to give them back.
Being the favourite uncle is honestly the best. Love seeing them, love giving them back.
I can give it my all for about 6 hours at a time. I could not do it 24/7
People have said this to me many times over the years. I assume because I’m female, and thus it’s my “job”.
My resulting conclusion is people are fucking stupid and don’t know what they are talking about.
See, I don’t like kids. I don’t like being around them, I don’t like hearing them, I don’t like trying to communicate something to them, and I just hate that they never stop making noise. I’m also wildly irresponsible, a terrible housekeep, too lazy to eat proper meals, have attachment issues and bonding issues from my own shitty neglectful childhood, and just all around exactly the sort of person you wouldn’t want raising kids. Not a nurturing bone in my body.
I got my tubes tied in my 20s and I’ve still been on hormones, to avoid as much chance as possible. I don’t want to ruin another life. I won’t even take baby animals anymore because I tend to give them issues. I only want adults with fully-formed personalities (animals and humans alike).
So they say “it’s such a shame you don’t have kids, you’d be a great mother” and are met with a simple “you wouldn’t say that if you knew me better…”
Gives a whole new spin on ‘I put you into this world, I can take you out of it’
