Johnson (TC House Lisbon -Dec)@justavagrant_• over 2 years ago

Mom started lecturing me in a meandering hard to follow way, first about the importance of having kids early, then the importance of being stable with a job. I tried to connect with why she was sharing (e.g. what was hard for her about having me at age 35)

Eventually realized that she shared (and has many times) because she worries that I've never considered this stuff. Obviously I have, but I realized I've never really shared with her.

Shared how I think about it with her - I want to have a family/kids, probably want to date someone at least 3-5 years before committing to that, so I'm at least 3-5 years out. Dating is a priority but not #1, also not something I can force so I'm just doing the best I can

She seemed satisfied by my answer. Curious if she'll bring it up again

@justavagrant_ Enjoying your sharing about this a lot. I could do way better opening up to my parents.
