A question for all the parents
This is something of poser, I would suppose, so I completely understand if you don't feel comfortable answering it all or, if you do, then only on your own terms (e.g. in your own journal or in some other venue entirely). That said:
Many of you who have children post about them here or on similar sites like Facebook. These entries vary from simple updates along the lines of "Buster got a new tooth" to loving recountings of their words and actions illustrated with photographs and furnished with speculations on their mental and emotional states and analysis of your own reactions and attitudes. Now I'm going to go out on a limb and assume that, regardless of the nature of the postings, you are all planning at some point to inform your children of their existence.
How exactly are you planning to do this? What do you expect you say to them and how do you think they might respond?
