people always got little comments to say like "you lucky you don't have kids", "you don't need no kids", "you shouldn't have kids" and more. it is really making me mad because some people make you feel like you are unworthy if you don't have any.

i am trying to have a baby but they don't know that. should i be worried about there comments?

thank you in advance.

People talk without thinking. They may actually believe that they are comforting you or making you feel good. People should not assume because a woman is pregnant and married that she is happy with the situation, nor should they assume because someone does not have children, they are happy with that situation either. Their intensions are not mean, they are just ignorant. I used to get very angry when someone would say to me, "when you have children..." I thought, who are you to decide that I'm going to have children? I would just respond, "what do you mean, WHEN?" that usually shut them up. Perhaps a, "I'm an adult and can decide what is best for me." would shut them up and get your point across.

I would totally ignore any of those sorts of comments, to be honest I wouldn't trade anything in the world for my little miss, she is the centre of my life and I love her to pieces. There is nothing in the world that can come close to the little smile I see on her face when I walk in the door when I come home from work. Sure we have our difficult times where she gets a little cranky or naughty but I still wouldn't say anything like that.

People who say things like that are probably feeling stressed, overwhelmed and unable to cope with their kids but I thank God for my precious children. Motherhood is an honor and a privilege that brings wonderful rewards in more ways than you could ever think or imagine.
Go ahead and live your life anyway you choose and never allow negative people to bring you down.

sometimes people say those things cause their tired or worn out from takin care of their kids cause it does wear you out sometimes but its worth be exhausted and tired to have the lil ones running around and smiling at you half the time you forget why you were made when they smile lol.....Next time someone looks at you and says "your lucky you dont have kids" look at then and ask "and why is that" the look of shock on their face will make it worth asking lol

Not at all! Some people are just rude, if you think you can be a good mother then go for it and don't listen to those jerks.
