I don't want children!

All power to you. You have the right to choose whether or not to have kids.

And welcome btw

 

Hello Simple,

Welcome to EC. I'm sure there are lots of people who can sympathize with you and will offer their experience and advice. I imagine you'll get more thorough responses if you were to post your question in one of the forums directed toward conversation. This particularly forum is really simply a place to introduce yourself.

I suggest posting your question in General Questions or perhaps Family and Relationships.

LOL me too. XD
Welcome to EC btw.

 

I've never wanted kids but people assume just because I have a vagina that I'm going to have them. Even worse, when I tell them I'm not, they insist that I will.

 

Welcome to the site! And yup, we're pretty much the same. The thought of having kids can send me into panic attacks.

 

Don't like kids, find them ugly, have no desire to have them.

..Family still thinks I'll change my mind..

 

I don't want them, but people never take me seriously when I tell them that. They always insist I will change my mind, because how could I be a woman and not want kids?

 

Because humanity is more than a sum of biological urges, we're thinking individuals with our own desires and needs which aren't simply dictated by our chromosomes.

 

Someone once used that as an excuse on why they wanted kids. "Because I want to pass on my genes."

When I commented that I don't want kids because I didn't want to pass on any genes for mental illness, someone else commented that it wasn't her fault if her child was serial killer. Then she got pissy and threatened to punch me because I said that I thought babies are ugly. Then this conversation popped up:

Her: What if you got pregnant?
Me: I'd get rid of it.
Her: You'd have an abortion?
Me: Yes.
Her: (extremely hostile) Do you believe in god?
Me: No.

She got even more pissed. Sometimes I feel like a real life troll.

I hope she was just cranky because she hormonal due to being pregnant, but if she was really like that? I feel bad for her kids.

 

I don't desire to have kids either. So now when someone says "You'll never have kids because you're gay" I can say "And...?"

 

I don't want kids and think that I would be a horrible parent.

 

Babies are ugly and not cute at all, but I do want to have children some day...

 

I love kids and I love babies. It can be stressful but would be worth it. Unfortunately, I won't be able to have my own, but I would love to adopt children. They'd be my babies and in no way different from children I had myself.

 

Not a female. I think babies are adorable...
...adorable when I don't have to change their diaper or wake up in the middle of the night to give them their bottle.

Nope. I am not having it. I will live vicariously off other people's babies. I do not want that kind of responsibility.

 

If I have kids, it'd be way in the future. I've been the big, "responsible" brother who's been the role model for most of my life. I've had to deal with constant fighting, yelling and screaming and moments that ended up with yet another hole in the wall. And although I like whatever innocence I have left, sometimes I like having the privacy to do some more mature things that can't have younger siblings with me. I've also pretty much become desensitized to many things, and sadly, I can relate very well to the headmistress of Monsters University.

 

I don't want kids (too expensive, annoying etc) but if my wife (if i ever have one) wanted one, i'll consider it.
im too passive it seems.

 

The people who know me always say like id be a good mom and stuff like that but they think I dont fit the personality to have kids which is probably true. I hate kids!!!

 

Oh yeah.. That's another reason why having kids would be way in the future for me, if it happens.

 

I don't want any kids at all either. I have never really had the patience for or liked kids and I really don't think I would be a good father anyway.

My mother still says that I will change my mind in the future after I find a good "wife". (Yeah.... not going to happen.)
