Okay, so LW might as well have just said "Hey, why don't you get one of your own? Oh, that's right, you can't! {insert mocking laughter}"

I am worried, however, that Elaine will tell our friends what I said. None of them think she’s weird, and when I’ve tried to talk about it with them, they’ve hinted that I’m being unkind.

I sincerely hope that Elaine does tell their friends about this, and the friends tell LW just how out of line she was. Is she uncomfortable? So is Elaine about being childless and then having her thwarted maternal instincts cast in her face!
