another thing that gets me [censored], is that because I don't have a child, I am not respected as those who do. [color:"green"]I hear you there. [/color] <img src="/images/graemlins/irish.gif" alt="" />
If motherhood doesn't interest you, don't do it. It didn't interest me, so I didn't do it. Anyway, I would have made a terrible parent. The first time my child didn't do what I wanted, I'd kill him."

Didint you know? You are not a "real" woman till you have had a child! <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> [color:"darkgreen"] Hey bucking the system feels good huh? That is why "Childfree by choice" is such a hot topic. B/c we're not out popping out babies [/color] <img src="/images/graemlins/irish.gif" alt="" />

Yep we are not conforming to societys "norm" so yes cf will be a hot topic for a while to come. As the society evolves, it changes its norms. When we look at the history, we find that many things were totally unacceptable few decades ago and vice versa. There are always two opposing forces about any situation. Not everybody conforms to same ideals, principals, values and living styles. Those who choose to walk on a different path always face loneliness.

i think everyone should get respect whether they have a child or they dont...many people that have children often have to put their lives on hold meaning they sacrifice getting the career they have always wanted or going back to school ect, many parents have to wait untill their children are nearly grown before they can get their life back..whereas a child free person realizes that life is already hard enough without bring children into it, atleast a childfree person knows somewhat what they want out of life and are not conforming to what society tells them is right for them.

You are not a "real" woman till you have had a child!
That, and:
--You're clearly still a little kid, as if you were mature you would realize you want children and have them
--You must be some sort of screwy weirdo if you don't want kids: EVERY normal woman wants kids!

"another thing that gets me [censored], is that because I don't have a child, I am not respected as those who do." It all depends on who you ask. All of us childfree certainly respect you for your decision! <img src="/images/graemlins/heart.gif" alt="" />

[color:"darkgreen"] Or they ignore you whenever you talk, or they don't let you get a word in edgewise. So the best thing to do is to for those type of people, is to ignore them back.[/color] <img src="/images/graemlins/irish.gif" alt="" />
