Just because I am young, unmarried and childless does not mean I have to be in charge of every blooming thing that comes down the pike. I'm sorry, I have a life, too. Though it may not involve a husband and kids, it does count!

OH MY GOD THIS MAKES ME NUTS!!! I get so sick of hearing "when you have kids they have to be your first priority. You will understand when you have them."
Well all I can say is if having kids makes you slack on your responsibilities and blow off your friends 8 times out of 10, I think I'll skip it. I realize there are real emergencies with children, but if every time you plan something you have to cancel because little Squidgy has an earache, I'm going to think you're bullshitting me and using the kid as an excuse to get out of it.
