Yes, it may well be as simple as that. I'm just trying to look a little deeper ie what constitutes our 'I wants' - I think you've said it anyway, you wanted to have a child to make you feel better (re your father/self esteem). By the way perth I'm not criticizing, just fascinated, and thank you for being honest.

Women want children. Men want to sleep with women. Thus the population continues. Perhaps the institution of Relationship has a glitch?
I know you're happy now Beestie, and as you say couldn't imagine life without them, but if you had your time again, would you honestly have children? What else would you do? Do you have any unfulfilled wants?
