Re: What did you realize in your 30’s?

I knew this stuff in my 20s, if not how to articulate all of it. What I still haven't figured out at almost 40 is how I could've done any of it. And it's too late now, I think.

By the time I was mentally together and financially secure enough to try, I'd have to adopt, and it would suck for the adoptee to realize their parent might die before they hit 18 or were ready to move out if they wanted to stay longer.

If I'd known I would definitely eventually want to be a parent, I might've realized this stuff, but I didn't see it as something I would definitely want eventually, and it never really occurred to me that I had to be prepping extremely hard for something I didn't want and had never wanted but might eventually want, maybe. I guess I'm just not strong on that kind of pragmatic foresight.

Fair point about not knowing how you could've actually done any of it, though. I definitely feel that.

I'm sorry you're going through it, too.
