That's a great point--I'm amazed at how people are sometimes confident in saying that if a person who isn't sure about kids has them, then it'll work out. But that's not always true--and by that point you really can't go back!

Writing this post I suddenly started thinking of Nanny 911, some episode that was probably on before this one, and some of those families really show that having kids doesn't necessarily mean growing up or being fulfilled. Half the time the reason people need the nanny is they seemed to think just having the kids would take care of everything else. They're a lot of work!
