We've been trying for almost four years, and I don't believe in using extraordinary means to have a child when there are so many children out there who need parents. We're on the verge of adoption, but technically (although we have a 12 year old who stays here during the school week) we are childless at the moment.

So, you don't always know the full situation from the outside. You never know who you're talking to, and just the question of "do you have any kids?" can start me on an emotional roller coaster at times.

Sounds like someone is jealous because a) her or her partner's reproductive organs don't work or b) she hates being a mother. Well, just so you know, I'm part of one of those childless couples and I think your question is about as inane as your children will grow up to be. That is if you can even have children. You see, intelligence is genetic. Of course, we'll always need someone to serve fries with that.

Instead of giving up on life and staying at home with a specimen of a 'future generation', I try and do something valuable outside of the home. Make the world better right now. I haven't given up and ran barefoot fat and pregnant to Dr. Phil waiting for the day that my children will do what I couldn't be bothered to even try doing. I do not go around asking questions like "what purpose do stay at home moms serve when their children are future burger flippers and free loaders?" either. Too bad. I bet you're answer would amuse me and a few others.

There are reasons that childless couples don't have kids. Maybe they CANNOT have kids or maybe they do not Want to have kids! It's not SELFISH not to have kids. It's selfish to have kids when they are not wanted. There are a LOT of unwanted kids in this world, because some have them because they do not practice safe sex, some because they think they will save a relationship, some because OTHERS want them to, and some because THEY are not ready for the responsibility. Look around, do you see all of the abused, neglected, and deserted kids in this world?

Why is it selfish not to want kids??? Would you prefer to add to the numbers of children around the world that are already unwanted. A lot of factors are involved in the decision to have kids or not and people who just have kids because they can are the most selfish of all. Often times those kids are dragged up with little or no comforts and end up having a life of misery. Would you want that for any child???

i don't think of they're. i'm a childless woman. i don't choose toddlers. i admire my time. possibly this is egocentric. I very own 3 desirable canines who soak up alot of my time and are my maximum suitable buds. I unquestionably have been married for 23 years and that i'm forty years outdated. I used to choose toddlers in my 20's, yet we've been at college and not sufficient time. Now that i'm forty, I have no interest. i choose to stay a relaxed, non violent relax of my existence. If this is egocentric, so be it. :) I additionally do not think of i could be a sturdy mom. i might overprotect and love too lots. i'm way too mushy and might make a toddler a fearful harm. My husband has a foul temper too. some human beings, like me, basically don't experience toddlers are a sturdy theory. I unquestionably have a sixteen 12 months outdated nephew who I situation for all of the time. If he grew to become into my own toddler he could be stored in a plastic bubble for secure practices! i'm overexaggerating, yet i be responsive to i could be overprotective and my toddlers might go through for it. Why do this to them or to myself? :)

how is that selfish?? if someone does not want kids and maybe realizes they may not be good parents then they are doing a good thing. really why add yet another unwanted child to an already overpopulated world. not everyones purpose in life is to have children. geez... there is more to life than just being a parent.

i know i will piss people off but really the selfish ones are poeple who can not have children and instead of adopting an unwanted child will go in debt just because they want a child that is their own flesh and blood.

Why is that selfish? If people don't want to have children, there is no rule that they must have them and frankly, they probably understand that the priorities THEY value would not contribute to being good parents. What are they supposed to do? It almost sounds like you are suggesting that they put everything they value on hold, have children and put them up for adoption to satisfy the needs of someone who can't have children. While that would be altruistic, don't forget that there are many, many people who desperately want children and turn out to be lousy parents.

It is not selfish to bring a child into a completely screwed up world that has many uncertainties.

I for one, do not plan on having children, nor do I ever want any. My main reason is that I know I won't be a good parent. THAT in and of itself is a purely unselfish reason for not wanting children.

How many abused and neglected children are there in this world? PLENTY. If those people had thought they weren't going to be good parents, there would be far fewer of those cases.

Having children is a personal choice. For what ever reason. In my opinion, I would much rather someone who does not want children, to NOT have them, rather than the child being raised by a couple that may neglect, abuse, or not really want to PARENT. Selfish? maybe, but that is their right. No one says you HAVE to have children afterall.

Are they selfish?? Maybe they are waiting for the financial and emotional stability to bring a child into the world. This is a good thing!! As there are countless couples who bring children into the world who simply don't know how to take care of them!!!

I'm sure NOT harping on anyone..... as I am one of those couples that had children BEFORE I was emotionally & financially stable!! And believe me, it CAN BE A DISASTER!!!
