She'd never have let you out in that sweater!"And, "Is ok really enough?"Still No Kids & Still OK has the answers!The author loves it when people have children since we need kids who grow up to create hilarious Netflix shows. But since parenting can be like flying a Boeing jumbo jet with squirrels in your hair, it's best if the desire for children is strong. Like Superman strong.And for those who hesitate to procreate? Ellen Metter gets it! The only doll she loved as a kid was Barbie since that doll seemed old enough to date. (With protection, of course.)
