Thank you for your reply and for thinking about what I wrote.

I am the first to admit that I don’t know anything for certain. In fact, if I ever become certain about anything, it’s usually the first sign of being wrong.

As a person with kids, I applaud your ability to even think about whether it was the right decision. With something so permanent and consequential as creating another life, one that must live in the world around us and then (in the best case scenario) become old, frail, and ultimately say goodbye to everyone and everything they love, I can see why that would be a very tough thing to do.
