I dont like them. I dont see the point of them. They are needy, whiny, grubby little drains on resources. Im married to a lovely man and we are blissfully happy in our little two-some world. So why do people feel the need to go.."anything stirring?"... "ah it will be you next..." We dont want kids. I dont have a maternal bone in my body, and thankfully I have met a man that thinks simliarly. When you try to explain this to people (see? I have to explain myself to people!!) they go..."ah you will change your mind" How insulting is THAT?? Ive even been called a selfish bitch for not wanting them!! Im an intelligent 33 year old woman, I know my mind...... Personally I think the majority of people regret having kids and just want to drag everyone else that they resent for being happy down with them...
There has to be a small, tiny part of you who wants children!! Imagine a mini-you and your husband! Your obviously not ready, if you dont av at least one you'll regret it. I don't believe you for a second that you dont want children!
Where do u think you came from..imagine if your parents thought like you ..you'd never have the pleasure of moaning about your origins like u are!!
yea you totally shouldn't ever have kids, how 'bout we kill off your selfish me, me, me genes this generation. Enjoy your old age sitting in a corner p!ss!ng yourself surrounded by cats. Fun for you!!!!
why talk about it then? if u really didnt want kids it wouldnt bother you either way when people do or talk about kids. u sound resentful and self invented. get some therapy, make sure u NEVER hav kids and get ur tubes tied luv! see? bet u couldnt!!
booooo you suck
Wait till you're old and grey sitting in a cold empty house that has not beautiful laughter. What will your career do for you then? It wouldn't want you, you'll be old and grey- You'll be old and grey and miserable and hating on ppl that have kids
"dont see the point in them"!?! eh human existance perhaps!!!...
you is the perfect person :)
You know whats worse than kids - parents
u could say that an std has made u infertile. it shut people up for me. it also made me laugh to see the shock on their faces. and when i had a chld [ which i don't regret] the look of puzzlement was priceless
My friend has the best anwer when someone asks her when her and her husband are going to have kids!!! "We're practicing!" Serves them stupid nosy old cows right! It's your decision and I'd love to be so sure about what I want!
Dont take it personally, its just a conversation thing people do, do you not have a boyfriend yet, when are you getting engaged, have you set a date, are you having kids, its what people do and not aimed at you. Have generic answer ready and just keep saying the same thing they'll get bored asking!
My hat off to any man or woman that decides not to become a parent, it is an extremely difficult decision to make and one not to be taken so lightly, perhaps if as much thought went into deciding to have children the world might actually be a better place.
you go girl, your mind, your body, you and your partners decision. from a mother
so there are women out there that dont want weans? now thats a cracker i didnt think you existed! where can i speed date people like yourself??
I partly agree, but don't think people with kids want to drag u down! They are just so happy since they had their own kids they think everyone else will feel the same...So don't take it personally!! I often have people inclduing my mother and sister telling me I will change my mind if I meet the right man! (I won't! I just don't want kids!)...Each to their own I say..
I hear you!
I think the issue here is not that you dont want kids but the fact everyone keeps on at you to have them. If your mother had felt the same you would not be here. I hope you appreciate what she went through.
poor you! sounds like u just a kid yourself!!
to the comment at 14.14... Im sure some people regret having them, they just wont admit it. and I wont have kids cos I KNOW I wouldn't make a good mother. Thats another point I should have made just because you "can" have kids, doesn't mean you "should" have kids.... and to the post at 13.52 - You might want to rethink a comment like that.. its just sad that you imagine having kids to keep you company. Get a dog.
if you think of kids in terms of money, then never have any as you would make a lousy mother. kids are not for everyone. each to their own. they do change your life and your life is not your own after you have them. people never regret having kids. only someone that has none would say that. you sound like a feisty woman!
Well said, why do people just presume. Why run around after children for the rest of your life- It actually doesn’t even make much sense. Enjoy life while you’re here
You say that now but when you get older and your chance has passed maybe just maybe you'll regret it then...who knows how you'll feel in later years when people you know are getting visits from their grandchildren and you sit there alone maybe with your husband passed on wishing you had a visitor of a son or daughter to visit
Amen!!
What you have to say is important. Write it here. Thanks.
