I got married last July and ever since then people have felt as though they have free reign to ask me when I plan on having children. It's rude. What if I couldn't have kids? That could be the most hurtful question to someone who wants kids but cannot have them.

I get asked by my co-workers all the time. I've started telling them that I hate children.....which partially true. I absolutely hate crying kids in restaurants and movies and I want to distance myself from that for as long as I possibly can!

My mother is ultra annoying about it. She reminds me all the time that I'm not getting any younger (I'm 27!) and that if I wait too long that I might not be able to have children. I think I may have posted this before but she one time mailed me an article that she found on women who wait too long and then discover they're no longer fertile. She put a post-it note on the article that read:

"Dear ZTAngel,

I want grandchildren.

Love,
Mom"

Argh.
