To all the people who are childless by choice -

I am with you.

For years I have navigated judgement from others that I am not a mother😐

Please don't push your child agenda on others. Not everyone wants to be a parent.

And no, this choice does not make us automatically selfish.

How to respond when people ask you when you're going to have kids : Life Kit : NPR https://www.npr.org/2023/04/13/1169740774/so-you-dont-want-kids-how-to-build-a-child-free-life #Childlessbychoice #FamilyPlanning

The question shouldn't be "Why aren't more people having kids?", it should be "Why are so many people having kids?". The world has descended into a permacrisis shitshow in which people can barely keep your own heads above water, let alone their kids', as well.

Finished this #book today, THE BLUE JAY'S DANCE by Louise Erdrich. And though I'm #childlessbychoice I still found her observations on the first year of her baby's life incredibly moving. Also made me miss my mom :-) Highly recommended #memoir.

Nah, I'd still be #childlessbychoice >> Once it's well-developed and available, it might start looking like a pretty attractive option for folk that like the idea of a baby but can't see why they should have to go through the ordeals of pregnancy and childbirth to get one https://newatlas.com/medical/ectolife-artifical-womb-facility/

(I am #childlessbychoice, but I enjoy other people's babies.)
