Some Families Don't Raise Children

Leaving one of my residences today (I work with adults with mental retardation/developmental disabilities), I said good night to two of the guys. One asked where I was going, I said home. He asked why, I said to have dinner with my husband. The other asked me if we had any babies. I said no. He said when will you have babies and I said we might, we might not. The other guys says very matter of factly: Some families don't raise children. And I said, That's right, some don't. Amazing insight from this man, who happens to have mental retardation, that we, DH and I are a family. Chat Icon
