Was talking with my 7yo dd/ds tonight about having a baby (my 7yo ds' teacher is pg. and she is going out on maternity leave). So my 7yo dd says "well if you don't ever want to get married and have babies you don't have to, right?" Then she didn't want to talk anymore. Is that normal????? [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

How much does she know about sex/birth? Maybe she has some bad info and therefore has some fears about it, or just doesn't like babies and doesn't think she'll ever want one! [ Reply | More ]

OP: she knows basically nothing about sex/birth. Likes playing with small children. Maybe I make motherhood look "too hard". [ Reply | More ]

Right. She feels uncomfortable about a "grown-up" topic and conversation. She's still a little girl. In 3 years you'll wonder what happened to this stage. Enjoy it and don't push her. [ Reply | More ]

np: Could be that--my now 13yo used to say she was NEVER going to move out and would ALWAYS want to stay home w/us on weekends! She still likes us but I can't say she's stuck like glue anymore! [ Reply | More ]

FYI, my almost 7yo DS has often said he doesn't know if he'd want to marry & it came out that he doesn't want to love anyone more than me - I know, AWWWW, but he really said it [ Reply | More ]
