SAH doesn't support change,

"SAH doesn't support change, it supports going backwards to the 1950's,"
Statement in a post below.
I wholeheartedly disagree. To me, SAH is a choice. How is that going back to the 1950s, when a lot of women didn't have much of a choice.

"Then I think that you are vastly different from most 18 year olds I know."
Well, that doesn't surprise me being that I'm 21. :P However, yes, you are right if you mean that I'm different from most people my age that you know. Yes, I'm very different. Most people don't sign closing papers 2 weeks after their 20th birthday (or 2 months before it, in my husband's case)!
"Lots of young people that age tend to suffer from "I" problems"
I totally agree. I once suffered from that. My life now revolves around a little monkey who will probably soon learn to climb up to and swing from my chandalier.... And while I do appreciate what others have to say about how to civilize my little monkey, I've learned to just listen to what others have to say, nod my head & smile, consider it, but do what I think will work best for us.
"By the time they reach 21-22 and they get a taste of the real world, their perspective broadens a bit."
I respect the opinions and advice of others; however, at the end of the day, I do and believe what feels right in my heart. I got a taste of the real world before my 21st birthday though. The only thing that changed on that day was my being able to order a margarita with dinner. I was getting little tastes of the real world before I even graduated, and I got a big helping of it at 19 as I lay screaming at a rather rude group of nurses that I'd push and breathe the way that came natural to me (DAMN IT!) and ten minutes later when the most beautiful thing I'd ever seen was placed into my arms. ;)
"your opinions and outlook will have changed. "
My opinions and outlook have changed a lot in the past year....and even moreso in the past 5. I can't imagine who I'll be in 10-15. However, I know who I am right now is a person who is just trying to do what I feel is best for my son and much more concerned with keeping faith in the man I love than proving I could live without him.
