Is It Bad If You Never Have Kids

Is it bad i never want kids?

Ok so me and my friends were talking about the future and all that and then we got on the subject of kids and all my friends were like, "Awwwww I want 2 or 3 kids"! And I'm like, "Oh I don't want kids". And then they were like oh my god why!!?!?!?! And what ever so I don't know, is it really that bad? It's like, I just don't want kids because that would hurt like a *****!! And also I just don't think I would have time for them!!

What happens if I never have kids?

If you don't have kids you get on with all the other wonderful things in life, you contribute to humanity in your choice of other ways, you get a good job with a good salary and enjoy what the money brings you, you interact with whatever nieces, nephews, stepchildren, neighbours’ children life brings your way, maybe even take up teaching something so you can interact with children every day - some schoolkids spend more of their waking hours with their teachers than they do with their parents. My five-year-old certainly does, she comes home from school to eat and fall into bed, give or take an hour or two of obsessive drawing.You don't go through morning sickness, indigestion, reading up on all the different ways pregnancy and labour can kill you - you don't go through labour! You don't end up with the same stretch marks and saggy breasts as a mother. You don't have the one in three chance of bladder trouble in old age, and I'm not sure what it does to your chances of osteoporosis. You don't spend years being woken two or three times a night by one or another wakeful child or hungry baby. You don't go through the supermarket ticking items off your list and stop when the trolley’s full, declaring that the rest will have to wait until tomorrow. You don't lie awake at night worrying how to pay the mortgage and get the car serviced.Personally, I love being a mother, I wouldn't trade my time with my kids for anything. But if you're not totally committed to the idea, then please don't.

Is it okay to NEVER have kids?

Of course it’s OK to never have kids.Plenty of people live interesting, fulfilling, wonderful lives without being parents. There’s certainly no law against it. If that’s what you prefer, you’re in good company.For example, Betty White is now 96, has been a working professional actress since she was 17, outlived all of her 3 husbands, and has no children. Author Amy Tan has produced numerous award winning novels, including some that were adapted for movie and TV, and is childless by choice. Suffragette Susan B. Anthony, whose face you may see on dollar coins, never had children. Neither did authors Jane Austen, Anne Brontë, Emily Dickinson, Louisa May Alcott, or figures like Coco Chanel, Amelia Earhart, and Julia Child.If you’re looking for childless men, try Bob Barker from The Price is Right, philosopher Francis Bacon, musician Louis Armstrong, Ludwig van Beethoven (yes, that Beethoven), James Buchanan (not Bucky Barnes, but the former US President), Copernicus, Leonardo da Vinci, Rene Descartes, Francis Drake, or T.S. Elliot.*All names listed are childless to the best of my knowledge (and the 2009 article I found them in), so corrections are welcome.

I have no kids, can i still get my tubes tied?

Congratulations on not wanting kids!

There are no “rules” that state how old you must be or how many children you have. It is just up to the doctor or the clinic. Each has its own brand of morals that it will impose on you. They do this because they have personal issues, and feel that they have right to impose their morals on you. They are no different than your average “bible-thumping” co-worker.

My girlfriend had her tubes tied at age 27. She even later had a hysterectomy at 36. She has no children. She had no known health issues when she was 27, so that was not an issue for getting her tubes tied. She didn’t have to lie about the fact that she does not have kids. She just didn’t want kids.

I had my vasectomy at age 21. I went to three clinics before I found one that would do it. I have no children. I told them I did, and they don’t verify anything.

We know other couples that got "fixed" without having children. It is not as uncommon as you think. I hear 1 in 5 women, in the USA do the same.

It might be harder for a woman to claim that you have kids because you will not have any stretch marks, but it is still possible.

Planned Parenthood will not help you due to their policies. I would check the yellow pages for “women’s’ clinics. When you find a non-profit, privately owned clinic, they will do it.

Is it bad that I am not interested in having kids?

I am 18 and even if I wanted kids I wouldn't have any now because I'm too young, and I may change my mind later yes, but right now I am 90% sure that I do not and never will want kids.

First off before you say something mean to me, I have nothing against people who do love kids and who have kids or want kids! The vast majority of Moms (admit it there are sometimes bad Moms) are great and I love my Mom <3

I'm just saying, I am not personally fond of kids, I don't hate them, I am nice to them and I play with my nieces and nephews, but having my own kids is something I don't want to do now or later.
I can barely take care of myself, paying for my own place and car and clothes and food, let alone another person.
Also, I get annoyed with kids easily when they whine and cry , it's not something I can handle. I work at Wal Mart as a cashier and when people's kids scream and cry, it makes me want to plug my ears and run far away.
I love animals, I get giddy and excited when I see a puppy or a bird, but a baby, I just, ugh :/

Is ths bad? Is every woman really destined to be a Mother?? I feel like I am not... Nothing about it sounds appealing, and besides, isn't the world all ready over populated???

Thanks!!!

Is it wrong to not want kids?

To say that you don't want kids, is your own choice.

For some it's they know they can't handle the responsibility.
Others simply don't want it.
Others have known major health or mental issues in their family, and don't want to worry about their kid(s) inheriting them.
In some cases, you have people like the relatives of Adolf Hitler who said they were never having kids so that the name would die with them.
Others look at the world and say 7+ billion is enough.
Others look at the world in a pessimistic light and say they don't want to raise kids in it.
Others come from a large family where their siblings or cousins are having lots of kids, so they don't feel the need to do it.

You have your reason. Don't be ashamed of it.
Yes, you're still young enough that you might change your mind.
Again, that's your choice.

That's the thing about why I'm pro-choice when it comes to kids.
It's nice when you can make the choice.
If you're choosing to have kids ... the irony is you're making a choice.

Why do people want kids?

I'm a 25 year old guy and have no desire for kids, My fiance does want kids but I don't see why and dhe doesnt know why she wants one. I just don't see the point of it going through 9 months of being pregnant and feeling bad,loosing your good figure( somtimes permently) then the massive pain of labor,just to be stuck with some little person who just lays there and cries and poops and is completely helpless for atleast the first 5 years. I just don't know why somone would want to willingly want to take on such a huge responsibility then once you raise them and do a good job you have to deal with the chance of them turning out to be drug addicts or criminals. I just don't get the point. I'd rather spend the money that rasing a kid anf sending them to college costs on a nice boat and a plane (I'm a pilot)
The whole needing somone to take care of me when I'm old reason is dumb because even if I had kids I don't want to be burden to them and will put myself in a home if it comes to that.
