Women: When/if You Have A Baby Is It A Gift To Show Love For The Man Or Yourself Or Both?
I’ve heard stories of women saying when they had a baby it was to show the husband how much she loved him but she knew she would love the child too. Can this be true?
I would have thought they do it (nowadays) for themselves.
i think its a combonation, like she would think i want US to have a baby. interesting question, hope i helped
I think that, yes, it is possible for a woman to have children with a man to show how much she loves him, or because that’s what he wants her to do and she feels obligated to him or his family to do so. I think most women, however, have children with a man as a celebration of their relationship together and their desire to start a family. A woman may choose to have a child for herself, especially in instances where a single woman will adopt a child or become artificially inseminated because she wants to be a mother. Motivation varies by situation, of course. I’m sure there are women who have a child with a man simply for the security of it (financially and emotionally speaking, thinking that he won’t leave her if there is a child). Ideally, as I mentioned before, it’s a celebration of your love together, but the ideal thing is not always the case.
I don’t think that is the reason. maybe for some but That seems really odd to me. Making a gift out of a human life?
I don’t really understand what drives people to have children. Most reason I hear are somewhat selfish, wanting to be loved unquestioningly, wanting to be depended on, wanting to continue your lineage. Even if you do it cause “you like kids”, eventually they grow up. They’re aren’t cute forever.
I think It’s just a human drive to continue the species.
We had a baby because of failed birth control. We were planning to have children anyway so it was just earlier than expected. She has been the greatest gift in the world to both of us. We certainly couldn’t imagine life without her. We both love her very much.
I had a baby because I wanted one. My husband wanted one too. I regarded it as being something I was doing for both of us. I certainly didn’t think of it as a gift, to my husband or to myself. A baby is not a gift, it’s a person.
If you have a child for someone else, or yourself, it’s a selfish thing. People tend not to say that they want to give a child a home or a life. If people wanted to have kids for unselfish reasons, they’d adopt instead of breed.
I think that it is a natural progression in the relationship. Not necessarily a “measure” of love for each other, but rather, a confidence and trust in your future together.
In my case, our daughter was born because the diaphragm failed. However, we love her as an independent human, not as an extension of our relationship.
It’s junk but true. If you love the father then you can prove it! Children!
When i have my little girl it would be to make myself happy. She will meanthe world to me i love her so much . Im 25 weeks pregnant.
Children are a gift for both parents.
no its bullshit
