to be honest.
Before Debbie passed away we talked about it, and if we had a child fine...if not fine.
Since we didn't go out of our way to try to because of 'other matters' at the time (bka Debbie's successful battle against cancer), we were happy with our cats (All healthy & fixed) and didn't care about everyone else's opinion of "You need to have children...It's God's gift to you two...blahblahblabbityblah".
The world isn't going to collapse into an event horizon because I'm not a 'Father'.
I know I would make a GOOD FATHER if I were to become one...I know that for a FACT.
