Dear Laura,
My mate and I have a problem. We want to have kids, but we both know that I'll get old if we do! Do you think that there is anything you could point our Hand to that might change this?

Dear Troubled Grendel,
I know having kids can seem to put years on your life, I mean, that comes from chasing around after them all the time, and yes, they do make you want to pull your fur out sometimes! But you?ve got to weigh up the options here; is gaining a few years worth it when you?ll have a little carbon copy of you, and your mate, pitter-pattering around the Jungle Terrarium at the end of the day? Parenthood can be a very rewarding experience as you get to raise and watch your youngster grow up with its own personality and view of the world. For another perspective, just imagine how your Hand feels. The Hand has all those Norns to look after but it?s given it a purpose in life. In short, getting old is inevitable, but life is for living, so make the most of it and do what makes you happy! (P.S. A pre-pregnancy injection of the Life chemical, as well as good diet and exercise is recommended).
