I would've loved to give him a home, why is that such a terrible thing? Haha lord, what crawled up your ass? And I'm most certainly not a saint. I merely explained to you that I have a passion for kids that are often unwanted (not in this case, thankfully, since the surrogate is going to care for him.) You accused me…

Ooo, got me again! Burn! Or maybe you're just a dick that was really wrong and you continue to spew idiocy at me in an effort to save face.

Wow, you're a mind reader!! I WAS looking for a conversation piece to validate my existence. How did you know?? A baby is the last piece to fit in with my mansion, my plastic surgeon husband, and my fleet of dobermans, who incidentally are taken care of by my numerous butlers and maids. (All minorities, by the way.)

What in the sweet hell are you talking about?

She is keeping the boy and wants the girl back now after finding this out.

I thought the surrogate mom was keeping the little boy. Wasn't that why the story broke, because she sought help with his medical bills?

Same here. I turned 35 this week, and I wish I could tell you it completely stops at some point but it hasn't yet for me.

In my experience it does get easier. Maybe that's because a therapist told me when I was 24ish that for most of the majorly depressed, things do get better after 30, and at the time I believed her because it sounded doable, just six more years, I can hack that. I'm in my —- ahem —- mid-40s now. I do take meds, but…

I'd had my 'issues' since I was 11. They were me and I was them. I did feel a little lost without them.

It did for me. I can pinpoint the exact moment and I was 27.

I think I maybe sort of know what you mean (and correct me if I'm wrong). One of the things I know a lot of feminists stand up against is the kind of gendered society that paints aggression as an inherent male trait, and every feminist I know is vehemently opposed to the "boys will be boys" attitude. But damn it, the…

34 years now! They are good together and, honestly, my dad would do anything to make my mom happy. She is his first priority, which is good because without her, our family would crumble. He may have paid most of the bills for most of their marriage but it wasn't worth it when she was miserable and he knew it…

Yeah, the snarky side of me wants to ask if his company has paid paternity leave for it's male employees, but the not snarky side is really impressed that he's acknowledged how the balance is in his favour to make this decision in the first place, and how it shouldn't have to be this big deal when a man makes the same…

Isn't that part of the sexist default, though? The dude's job is the most important thing in the family, so everyone moves for it. What about his wife's job? What about the kids' friends? It's actually nice to see the high-flying man make the sacrifice for once.

They state she's a doctor and a professor. She has her own career, too. Maybe she didn't want to switch coasts?

He's already got a job — he's Vice Chair of the same company. Typically, CEOs his age don't give up those jobs, they have them taken away. His decision is noteworthy because it is so rare.

My Dad has worked in the management ranks of the financial sector for most of my life. He retired last year because it was too much for him. Just far too much at his age. He had a lot of money to spend and no time to spend it. What was the point of earning if he couldn't enjoy it?

Having your family 3,000 miles away, a 3 hour time difference and a 6 hour plane ride—I can see why he made that decision.

... This looks like the kind of thing I'll buy, love intensely for a few weeks, then promptly lose and never replace.
