  • This link and the Walrus in general won't load, so I haven't read the article.

    But, I do have 2 children born in Canada in the past 10 years, and both had a baby-box that we were provided with, which contained tonnes of baby supplies, and a mattress which they slept on for much of the first few months (until they could reach the edges and hit it in their sleep)

    So whatever this article is supposed to say, we're either already doing it, or we recently stopped doint it.

  • You can never know.

    I'm a proponent of having a long relationship before major decisions. I'm not saying people who have kids in their 20's are doomed, but I believe that having a longstanding strong relationship prior to having kids is key. The fear is still there, but the knowledge of how your partner reacts to strife and hardship, goes a long way compared to NOT knowing.

    As to changes, of course you'll change. Parenting a newborn is different than parenting a toddler is different than parenting a tween, etc, etc, etc. Embrace the change. Embrace the challenge. Don't have kids expecting it to be easy.
