Dear Queenie,
My husband and I want to start having children but I have seen the problems other people have with their children, including in my own family, and I am afraid of all the things that might go wrong.
Queenie, how can I stop being so scared?—Fraidy cat
Dear Fraidy cat,
There are no guarantees in life. You and your husband should consider carefully what you want, how many children you want to have, and how you will cope with any problems that might arise.
As usual, I recommend professional counselling, if necessary, to help you make these decisions.
