Question...
do you feel like you always get rude remarks from people who have kids. like "oh, you don't know what it's like to be busy, cuz you don't have any children"
i get that from one of my family members ALL the time and it is getting kinda old if you ask me  i don't get it.....just because you don't have kids your life is not as busy or not important  ????

Re: Question...

YES!! it drives me crazy too. and also because i do want kids one day but i went through a divorce and everything obviously got pushed off.
i made a comment right back usually. and lots of times i do have people comment for me! my friend waited a long time to have kids and will always say in that situation, 'you know people who don't have kids have lives too!' love her.

Re: Question...
If anyone ever told me that I'm not busy because I don't have kids, I would burst out laughing right in front of them and so would anyone who knows me.
I'm busier than every, single person I know who has kids. Being busy has NOTHING to do with having or not having kids.

Re: Question...
I think DH and I are busier than most of our friends who have kids. They pretty much just stay home to watch the kids. We actually plan stuff, go out and go away for the weekend. Plus we are doing a lot of work in the house ourselves. And we have 2 fur babies.
