Doesn't your mom think they don't deserve to know their own sibling? That couldn't happen if you weren't amicable with N. May your home grow in happiness, and may N's latest pregnancy be healthy and without complication.

It came at a moment when I've been wrestling with the concept of loving with an open, loving heart, in my case in regards to poly relationship, but you epitomize the concept so incredibly beautifully here. I'm in awe. Truly. Thank you for sharing this. Jade Wow…reading this post brought tears to my eyes.

She's decided not to use it in most instances. She doesn't believe in abortion. Make of this what you will. Yes, she’s had chance after chance at getting/using effective and safe birth control.

Consequently I (and I suspect my sister and younger brother, though I've never asked them) was always *very* careful about accidental pregnancy. How can we expect kids to learn from our (and others) mistakes if we hide those mistakes from them?

An example of a happy, healthy and stable home with a strong parent figure. (What I am curious to know is, where are the medical professionals at the births of her children to offer better birth control, or even options for sterilization to this woman!? Surely after 4 pregnancies in quick succession she is tired of it all? Of course I'm sure there are extenuating circumstances and the decision is hers to make, but I can't help but feel for her. That much pregnant must be exhausting.) And even more importantly (perhaps) is your potential to give N an idea of what her future children could have.
