I had the following conversation the other day with an incompetent 16 year old I have to associate with on occasion. The conversation was prompted by a child running helter skelter all around a store. Someone please tell me I wasn’t this stupid at that age.
stupid teenager: Aren’t kids so cute? I want one of my own.
Me: Not me. Not right now.
stupid teenager: How old are you?
Me: I’ll be 29 this summer.
stupid teenager: You’d better get moving if you plan to have any kids.
Um, what? Can I throw something at her head? It might help.
I am an educator and PhD. I quilt, belly dance, run, read, and try to grow things. I am a Mormon. I am infertile. I am a daughter, sister, aunt, grand-daughter, friend, wife, and mom.

Well, I was berated by a 39 year old soon to be great grandmother expecting to die of old age soon in Mozambique for not already having grandchildren on the way so it is all about perspective.
