Subject: Skipping over a stage: parenting without marriage

When I read the blogs of my friends talking about parenting and all the challenges, I am coaching parents how to deal with all these challenges, particularly the most difficult situations. It proves several things: 1) it doesn't have to be parents in order to be able to do coaching 2) i have my 100% empathy toward parents without being a parent 3) it's scared me enough that i keep questioning myself if I wanna be a parent.

If I don't know the reality, I will not be afraid of anything. I will just do it and commit to it. Once I have committed to it, I will walk through it. However, with such realization, I hesitate to commit while I still have a choice to NOT commit. Maybe this is the reason why humankind is supposed not to know the future as we are coward being.

I had thought these thru before as well.
Truly agree with it. Glad to hear that parents are willing to take advice from single friends, it doesn't happen a lot.
