The thought that your parents want grandchildren should have no affect on your decision of weather you have children or not. You will be the one that has to get up at night and take care of them when they are sick. kids change your life for ever in all different ways and that decision is one that should not be made lightly You should sit down with your family and talk to them and tell them you reasons for wanting a baby or not wanting one the may understand or they might not just let them now that if they push you into some thing that is not right for you they may be hurting the chances of ever having a grandchild. and you will let them now when you have come to that decision on your own.Just make the decision for you not any one else your life will be the one changing the most. Good luck

Yes it is. There are no guarantees in life and they know that. If they are pressuring you then politely and lovingly tell them that you will have children when and if you decide to do so. Children are a big responsibility and every child should be wanted by its parents. If you have children to satisfy someone else's wants other than you and your spouse then that makes for a poor start to an adventure that will last a good twenty years. One of the hardest things to do is to stand up to parents and set sail on our own courses. Good luck and be brave!

It's not fair or unfair. The hope to be grandmothers are really the ones who want a grandchild.

The only reason to EVER have children, is because YOU want them.
