Well, unless you count my niece, who lives with us, and for whom I provide 90%
of the financial support (it's a long story). But the mom-in-law takes care of
her for the most part so it's not as if I'm a surrogate dad or anything. (In
fact, most other fjlijers here should be able to vouch for the fact that I am
often quite vocal in my pride at not having produced any offspring.)
