[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I suspect that a good percentage of people who really think through this, end up not having kids. It’s one of the things I’ve noticed about choldfree people — they have a pretty clear grasp of how much work parenting is, vs those who romanticize it and want kids. (Of course, CF people don’t really grasp the joys of it, either.)[/quote] They do grasp the potential joys, but they realize that even those joys don't always happen or come at a big cost. Not all parents feel all the magic often described. But some people have trouble believing that and constantly argue that the hardship of kids is outweighed by the highs. But while that may be their experience, some people see that it is a gamble, and they decide not to take it.[/quote]
