Sheila, I have a friend whose three children are grown and out of the house. All three married, one about to make her a grandmother. Anywho, every Monday she goes to a hospital nursery to rock those babies who otherwise receive little or no “cuddle” time with another human being. Then, she would probably be most gladly received at a daycare center or Head Start Program. Still leaving time for that nap before bed time..answer: NO Peace and grace

sheila, you are so right. when we were young, this was not possible. as i told the doctor the first time they wanted to give me a colonoscopy, just because you can do something doesn’t mean you should. (in the case of the colonoscopy i relented.) but modern fertility practices need practicing consciences.

Excellent comment by Sheila! The world is seriously overpopulated, our major problem — too many babies, too many old people, all consumers of valuable and scarce resources. See recent post about living longer through stem cells — that is height of selfishness and disdain for the planet. Tippi
