I suspect there is a secondary reason for that post. Are you trying to convince yourself of something?
I mean that in the best way, BTW.
Gee...I was wondering the same thing about you, but had decided not to prod you about it. :-)

Well...Dad's birthday was the 12th, so that's got both "loss of parents" and a sense of my own mortality fresh in my mind. Also, I broke up with my ex about ten years ago after being married for 23 years, so the "absent parent" issue is very present there too. Even if I'd known the marriage was going to end, I don't think I'd have elected to not have the kids.
