    You are one of many.

    My daughter in law and son do not want kids and that is fine. The only problem is for those that judge you for this. Tell them you have a life and they need to get one if they worry about yours so much.

    Of course your not alone, some dont want kids but then when the time is right realise they do, and some just dont want kids ever (like my aunty). If you dont want kids, dont have them - people shouldnt hold it against you, everyones entitled to personal choice.

    Personally, i do find the whole prospect very terrifying

    but i think i probably will still have kids, just have to wait and see i guess,

    i find it scary that its so easy to just completely mess up their life and therefore many generations of kids, i dont think i like the sound of that. or even if you did bring them up well they could still turn into complete psychos and the blame will be pointed at you.

    And also its just so scary full stop that you can create a life, im scared im going to look at my baby and just be terrified because i wont be able to get my head round that it is a part of me - im probably not making much sense here... im not very good at typing what i mean.

    Basically i hopefully will have kids but i will be an incredibly overprotective mother and panic all the time to whether im being a good mum or not

    No, there are several woman and men in this world that do not want kids. That is fine.. there should be more people willing to admit they can't handle children and not have them, than just have them anywase!

    No you are not ~ I have children and am very glad but I have a friend who does not want children and I respect her ~ it is far better to be honest if you don't want children than to go ahead and have a couple of children because it's the so called thing to do ~

    You should live your life the way you want ~

    No! I swore I'd never get pregnant! But then it happened, I thought over my options, and I decided I'm 26 and may as well do it.At first I was horribly sad with a "my life is over" feeling all the time, but now that it's been 4 weeks, I'm getting used to it.

    Nope, you're not alone (though I bet sometimes you sure feel like it). I have two girlfriends who do not want children, one is married and the other is in a long-term relationship. They are both happy with their lives the way they are and see no point in changing it.

    No, of course not! There are tons of people out there like you. Type in "Childfree By Choice" and see all the searches that come up! You are NOT Alone.

    I'm only nineteen so maybe I'll change my mind, but no I've never wanted kids, and I never really get all gooey around babies.

    A few hours babysitting occasionally is enough for me!
