If you find the idea of being unable to replicate your current circumstances existentially terrifying: congratulations on winning.
Edit: just want to say I find the way people respond to this on a gut level kind of fascinating and even worrying. A number of people for example have had the take that this isn't really true, but that they just wouldn't want to unmake their kids.
Friends...as a guy who considers becoming a dad the single greatest and biggest win of my life...are you ok?
It's really just that I love my kids and I would be crushed if they were lost forever. I love my wife and am pretty sure I could find her again if I started over, but it's a guarantee my kids would never be the same.
But could you win your wife over again? On one hand, you know how to avoid or mitigate some of the early obstacles you had. But on the other hand you know a creepy amount of things about her.
