WhatNotToSay#8 tackles the REALLY insensitive comment that we are lucky NOT to have kids.
Pardon my language: however …
ARE YOU SERIOUS?
If you don’t know my situation DON’T make the assumption that I didn’t want children.
For people who do know how desperately I wanted children SEE THE IMAGE ABOVE!
WhatNotToSay#8 video
Andrew and I really struggled to know what to say in this video without it becoming aggressive or offensive. Which means that this video is quite short and to the point.
That struggle also means this whole blog is on the short side.
Basically, we are lost for words about the insensitive nature of this comment when the person saying it REALLY means it.
We hope our very brief thoughts have given you something to think about. In Creating A New And Beautiful Existence we need to find ways to overcome the insensitive comments that people say to us.

Practice makes perfect
It’s all well and good writing about things in theory: however, we need to start applying what we learn. If you are feeling strong enough, I would like you to plan your “ideal world” response to this type of comment. Give it a go even though no one has ever made this comment to you. There is always a first time, and it’s better to be prepared.
Be kind to yourself …
In CANBACE friendship!
