I have to disagree...


Just b/c you have mental health issues doesn't necessarily mean that you will pass it on to your children. Yes, if you have bipolar disorder you have a greater risk of your children being bipolar but remember they (the child) still has the other set of DNA.


I say this because my grandmother has had mental health issues (depression), as had my mother, brother and I was at a time diagonosed depressed). It doesn't meant I don't want children, because I do. Yes, there is always the fear that your child won't turn out perfect, but you handle it and move on.


I know it's a soap opera, but if my husband went and had a vasectomy behind my back, I would have been livid. Not that I would have gone out and stolen his sperm sample (LOL) but I can somewhat understand Greens reaction to his announcement. That is not something you just do without consulting your spouse (IMPO).
