Side note: "I want to have grandchildren!" makes me so angry.
Bitch, if you want kids so bad go adopt some. I'm not having kids just so you can enjoy them from a safe distance.
That's quite overgeneralizing and oversimplifying, don't you think? For a lot of them, adoption doesn't feel remotely similar to having blood-related (grand)children. They may also not want to simply "enjoy them from a safe distance".
Of course. My best friend's sister has a daughter, 5 or so years old now, and in her case the entire immediate family is involved in taking care of her. She's an incredibly sweet girl, and the most well-mannered child I've ever known.
I can absolutely guarantee you there was no pressuring to have children in that scenario. I won't say more out of respect for their privacy of course.
That said, my comment was indeed an over-generalization, you're right. From the context of the manga (or... lack thereof?) I jumped to my own conclusion that really is unfair to many people. Speaking so harshly out of frustration or anger is something I try to avoid, although my success rate in that regard isn't always... very good. I truly regret having abandoned empathy and civility as I did, and I apologize.
