Babies certainly change your life!    

For those of you who are not yet parents,

Please answer the following questions in this order and in this format.  Include the questions in your post and be sure to fully explain your answers.

What are you looking forward to when/if you become a parent?

What are you most worried about?

What do you want to have accomplished before you have children? 

Post your answers to the questions above, and respond to the students who reply to your post. Your original post must be completed before 11:59 pm on Wednesday February 17, and your responses are due before the discussion closes on Sunday February 21. Be sure you check for replies before Sunday evening!

For those of you who are already parents or are currently expecting,

Reply to 3 of your classmates in a way that continues the conversation.  Your replies are due no later than 11:59 pm on Friday February 19, and I recommend that you wait until Thursday before you reply to anyone.  Please spread out your replies – if a post already has 3 responses, choose a different one. Everyone who posts should get at least one reply, and no credit will be given for a 4th or 5th reply to a post.

The due date for this assignment is listed as Wednesday but that only applies to the “posters” (the non-parents).  The “repliers” (the parents) can reply any time before Friday evening.  Canvas will mark your replies as late after Wednesday but ignore that.
