[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Honestly? I think wow, they are very different than me. I always knew I wanted to have kids and I cannot imagine not getting to have this amazing experience, much less not even wanting it. BUT: that thy are very different than me is just fine, the world is made up of all different kinds of people. If they're happy, I'm happy for them

TBH the people that baffle me the most are people who are into their 30s and still "aren't sure" whether they want them or not. That is much harder for me to comprehend [/quote]

This. People who know they don't want kids shouldn't have kids. Good for them for determining their own path to happiness. I really wanted kids and I love mine very much, but it's still hard work. I can't imagine being a parent if you didn't really want it.

However, I also know single people in their 30's and even 40's who are still "debating" whether they want to have kids. They party hard and have very dysfunctional relationships and can't commit - lots of self destructive behaviors. I judge them for whining that they want marriage and maybe kids one day while behaving in the opposite way. I don't judge them for not having kids though, as I don't think they should. I would respect them more if they just figured out what they want and went for it without whining. [/quote]
