Bah!The noisemakers.
It’s so easy like that.Enjoying everything you have,with your partner and no stones on your shoulders and…everywhere else.
In the end,we don’t owe to anyone to make kids.
We have choice and one of them is to live our life as we please.

@carol – People like to pretend that kids don’t rule today. From most of what they see they seem to be firmly in the driving seat.
@rhea – hear, hear!
@SC – I always find it interesting when people tell me that if one thinks to much about the economic/money side of things, one would never have kids, therefore I should not think about it, just jump in and do it – I’d manage.I beg to differ. And who said I wanted to “just manage?”

“…you are going to have to live on a reduced income at a time when you actually require more. …very flawed and rather ignorant assumption.”

That was always one of the factors that I considered, initially when deferring, later when ‘finally’ seeing the light to remain childfree.

So thanks, but no thanks, to becoming a battery hen.

Hear, hear!

I work hard so that (after bills) I can pay for the books I love to read, the computer games I enjoy playing, the clothes I want to wear, the restaurants I want to visit. Not only can I do that, but I can do those things in peace and quiet when I want, at a moments notice.

Before,i used to believe in tradition of having kids when i reach a certain age.But after seeing how nuts the kids of today are and how spoiled they’ve become,i say :Forget it!
I do love children as long as they don’t start shouting and crying themselves off.

They are anyways millions of kids out there with no parents,waiting for someone to show them some love and give them a warm and clean bed.

The earth is overpopulated and i don’t know why people keep asking for more kids.

They should make a rule and every 10 years,everyone should take a break from procreation.
Smack my head if you want but the world is too crowded.
