    I admire you, Julie. Everyone has a right to want or not want to be a parent. The child has no choice and shouldn't be in a family that doesn't want children. It is terrific that women have a choice now.

    Nice to see Julie again and hear her reinforce her decision about children. She's a girl that knows what she wants. It's great that you all remain good friends.

    I really respect Julie. She knows having kids isn’t for her. Yet she also knows she’s blessed with the ability to make carry and make a child. She used that to help her two friends become parents. I can’t imagine being so sure I don’t want kids…and then inflicting all those hormonal changes on myself. I want kids and I’m utterly terrified to have them. So I really do respect her.

    Is there one child who is more like Julie than the other in terms of personality? Julie is amazing. Adam and Eric are wonderful parents

    • @McHusbands
      @McHusbands  Před rokem +4

      Not really. Queen A is a lot like Adam but Queen E is unlike anyone else!

    • @sherrychapman9851
      @sherrychapman9851 Před rokem +3

      ​@McHusbands Queen A is absolutely like DadA and looks a lot like Julie too. Queen E is DadE up and down in looks and truly has her own personality.

    what I appreciate about you guys a lot is that you don’t exploit your kids too much on CZcams. I see so many family channels these days that get caught up in getting alot of views so they exploit their children any chance they get. You guys have such a healthy balance of keeping them on and off camera, establish boundaries, and respect their privacy so much. Tbh there are times when I get so excited seeing your kids on the thumbnail in a new video and want to see more of their beautiful personalities but then realize they are children as well and have a life. Much love and respect to you both for doing that, and your both such amazing parents!! For my future children I aim to do the same in this crazy social media world!!

    When Julie and Adam were about to do rock paper scissors - Julie made a facial expression that looked just like Addisen
    In the thanksgiving vlog seeing the two of them with her it was like holy genetics, Batman 😂
    Thank you, all three of you for being so open!

    Addisen and Everest are lucky to have such wonderful parents like Eric and Adam. Been following them from day one, exemplary parents.. As good as the best mother in the world, those precious little girls have all the love, care and support they need from their amazing fathers❤

    So crazy. Had stopped watching for a while (depression kept me away from CZcams entirely) and I just came back a few weeks ago. Was rewatching these old videos and catching up on new ones (which led me to the old). It’s wild, I just thought last night “I wonder if they’re be doing an update any time soon or ever again”.

    Julie, you know yourself better than anyone. My Best friend asked her OB to tie her tubes at the age of 25. She told her no, not until she has kids or turns 30. So she asked for 5 straight years. She turned 30, and her OB agreed. Neither her nor her husband wanted kids. The people you love and that know you know your heart, and I agree not all women want kids. Thank you for sharing with us!

    48 yo woman here. No birthed kiddos of my own, yet I’m in education, which seems to do many to be ironic. I knew I did not want my own, and I’ve never regretted the decision! You do you, love!!

  • @shellegriffin
    @shellegriffin Před rokem +1

    Julie you are amazing. You know yourself better than most and that is to be honored and respected. Aunts have the best of both worlds. They get all the perks of grandparents without the work of being a parent. As for the needing a “mother”. The language could be changed to female role model or confidant. There are times when they may want to talk with someone in their tribe that has experienced what they are or about to experience. And I am confident that the two of you will be amazing in those moments so they may not need or want that. If they do your family and friends will be there for them.❤

    Thank you for this honest video! I am a woman unable to have children (Turner's Syndrome). At some points in my life I was made to feel less than because of that. I am a step *Bonus* mom to an incredible young man and Auntie to 3 amazing young women ❤️ I truly believe every person has their own journey finding their family and every family is Beautiful no matter how it came about. Addison and Everest are Blessed with their family 🥰🥰

    I always loved kids and couldn’t wait to be a mom but my daughter isn’t sure she wants to go down that path and I’m totally fine with whatever she chooses. It’s not a small decision to have a baby and I admire women who listen to their intuition about it!

  • @malveenbiddle1356
    @malveenbiddle1356 Před rokem

    A wonderful gesture on her part, and you are fantastic parents but I cannot comprehend her reasoning. Both the little girls resemble Julie, especially Everest. They are a credit to their Fathers. I love seeing their rapid development.

  • @wanda4573
    @wanda4573 Před rokem

    The girls are well loved and I think when they are like 35 julie will be able to relate to them more and so appricate seeing them more. What a specail person she is giving her friends a life time gift of happiness. Open relationship is very important for the girls. They will be asking so whose my real dad?

  • @damn_it_Monica
    @damn_it_Monica Před rokem +2

    We have a young lady friend that knows she doesn’t want children. The way people and even her dr. tell her she’ll change her mind. I know she won’t she’s said since she was 14 that she doesn’t want children. She’s 23 and I wish people would leave her alone.

  • @EmmaLouise78
    @EmmaLouise78 Před rokem +3

    I think people who are maternal won't understand how Julie may feel. I never wanted children and if I'm honest, I don't particularly like spending time with kids so I totally understand how She feels and it's important that all views are considered and respected

    • @McHusbands
      @McHusbands  Před rokem +6

      Agreed! The fact it’s an issue for others when women are vocal about not wanting kids is so odd to me… like how does it concern anyone other than the woman in question?!

    • @EmmaLouise78
      @EmmaLouise78 Před rokem

      100% agreed! Great video. Happy St Patrick's Day from Ireland 💚☘️🇮🇪

    @katew9927 Před rokem +2

    We have a daughter and THREE nieces - ages ranging from late 20's to early 40's - and none of them want children. I think it's a really interesting trend because when I was young, women didn't really have a choice unless you kept it a secret or pretended that you were infertile.

  • @amandajames7065

  • @anneliesjoss
    @anneliesjoss Před 9 měsíci

    Yes, even as a very young girl, it was drilled into me that some day I was going to have children. Nobody says the same to boys and men. There’s way too much pressure on girls and women to have kids.

  • @peachygal4153
    @peachygal4153 Před 9 měsíci

    A favorite aunt is like grandparents. You get the spoil the kids and enjoy them, but the hard part is the parent's job. I get it completely. I do think it is good you guys allow the girls to know Julie so they won't have questions when they are older. Julie, on another channel Eamon and Bec, she had breast cancer and before starting treatment she had her eggs frozen for just in case as chemo sometimes affects fertility. A year later she got pregnant naturally and they are having a daughter in December. so yes, freezing eggs do not affect fertility.

    I absolutely unequivocally want to be a mother and want kids, however, I’m utterly terrified to. Can’t imagine knowing I don’t, yet still doing that and going through a nine month pregnancy, hormonal issues, etc.

    2 of my 4 children have chosen to not have children (they're all in their 30"s). I support their decision 100%! I also don't know if I believe the egg donor is the "mom". I can see explaining that you share 1/2 of your dna with this person that donated the eggs, but mom??

    Does Julie’s parents and grandparents consider the girls their grandchildren and if she has siblings do they consider them their nieces. Even though Julie goes by their aunt.

      For me, appearance wise - Queen E is pretty much a carbon copy of Erik, but Queen A is a mix of both Julie and myself. Julie and I look a lot alike and look like we could be siblings, so Queen A I think is a mix of both. I would say I see a lot of my personality in Queen A, but Queen E is her own entity really. She’s unlike anyone I’ve ever met before hahah! But I love that she’s so uniquely her.
