We've got 2 DC and are pretty confident we don't want anymore, so he's just had it done. Yet when I mention it to people (family/friends) they seem horrified. And it's not just because I am daring to discuss it!
Our reasoning follows thusly:
- We don't want any more kids, so a long-term no-fertilisation solution is required.
- Our choices seem to be: a) no sex ever ugh b) condoms every time c) I stay on hormonal contraception for 15-20 years d) I get tubal ligation e) he gets the snip.
- Of all those options, the snip seems to be the least risky and most effective.
So what's the problem with these people?!
If it upsets you too, please come and explain to me why. If you've been in my position, please tell me your best ripostes
