If you don’t want kids why would you even be on a parenting forum

It's interesting in an anthropology-study way. Maybe some biological clock stuff, too.

Don't have kids if you aren't 100% sure, and maybe even if you are.

Society raises us all to think we'll become parents. You don't have to overthink this. I actually have two kids and don't have a parenting folder on social media at all. It doesn't have to mean anything, in either direction.

Did you end up having kids? If so, what made you decide on them?

Hormones. Instincts.

If you don't have kids, you'll be the only one of your thousands of human ancestors who made that choice.

I saw a post on Instagram this morning of this cute little girl and how to properly potty train. Without thought, I saved it to my “parenting folder”. I hadn’t realized until this morning that I have this folder on my IG, FB, and TikTok, with multiple videos saved across each platform. I’ve felt for many years that I would be fine without having kids and don’t really want them. So, why save parenting content then? Anyone else experience this?
