I don't want any kids. Am I wrong or selfish?

It isn't selfish to not have kids. No one is required to have kids.

You shouldn't have kids if you don't want children, don't want to be a parent and/or don't think you'll be a good parent. You're not selfish. A child wouldn't thrive under the parenting of a father who doesn't want them and isn't committed to being a good parent. There are plenty of folks in this over populated world and making a responsible choice and saving the world from one more bad parent is hardly selfish (I'd call it selfless even!)

I do think, however, that philanthropy is especially important from childless people who often have more discretionary income. There are ways to contribute to the betterment of the world and future outside of being a good parent. Donate some money to school foundation bringing better arts of science resources to kids in your community. Take some of the extra cash you save from being childless and put it toward improving opportunities for children. Children are the people who will rule the world when we're old and grey and we want them to be treated with compassion and generosity so that they treat others with compassion and generosity. Don't have kids... but do support the betterment of the ones who are out there, when possible!

Kids are definitely a big responsibility, and if you don't think you'll be a good father, then you aren't wrong or selfish, in fact you might just be the opposite.

Wanting independence and freedom is fine, as long as you can endure the 'urges'.

No you're not wrong or selfish. If you truly don't want kids, then don't have any.

Like you, I'm childfree. There is NOTHING wrong with not having an urge to reproduce. Just in your future endeavors, make sure that whoever you marry or date doesn't want kids either. I hate it when a childfree person gets trapped into having a child because the other person wants one and they don't.

Congrats on making a decision and sticking by it!!!

You can't compare yourself to your bad father and assume you would suck as a dad. However, if you really don't want kids, then yeah, you probably would suck as a dad. There's nothing wrong with not wanting kids. Especially in today's economy. Everything's getting more expensive and wages remain stagnant. Too many people have kids they can't afford and they usually grow up to be burdens on society.

you never know if you are going to be a good father or not. I didn't think i was going to be a great uncle for my nieces but i still am a good uncle

Personally I don't think you are being selfish! Life's handbook never said you have to have kids.

Not at all. If you don't want kids, don't have them. Children ARE a huge responsibility, but not one that you HAVE to undertake.
