[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have some childless friends. By mid 40s they come off as self-absorbed drama queens-especially the single ones. When they offer parenting advice to anyone I roll my eyes. Their life is bizarre to me. I literally wonder what they do with all that bandwidth. [/quote] OP here. Would like to clarify that those who choose not to have children identify as “childfree,” not childless. I’m not sure if that term is actually used- perhaps for those trying, but who currently do not have children? I’m not sure. I have really appreciated this thread and I think it offers a lot of great advice about how to approach relationships. I do like kids a lot (work in a secondary school) but I have no interest in offering parenting advice, and will be sure not to do that with my parent friends moving forward. I just want to preserve strong friendships (with and without their kids present!) with the understanding there will be changes over time. [/quote]
