RE: My baby sister @andysantics48 has joined Steemit! Please give her a warm welcome.

I was 8 when the first of my two baby sisters was born...I was less than thrilled to be babysitting when I was that young but I guess it kept me out of trouble later in life. And we are great friends as adults, which is wonderful. Off to check out your sisters blog!

Sort:  

At 8, the maternal instinct probably hasn't quite kicked in yet. Even at 11, it's probably only just starting. I've never wanted my own children, and my theory is that I used up all my maternal instinct when I was young, lol.

That's exactly what I tell people when they ask why I don't have/want kids! Been there, done that. haha

Maybe we used up our fledging supplies of maternal instinct before they could multiply.
