There was a time when young men and women were pushed to get married and have children. Tradition, culture, and even religion played their part in such mindsets to the point that arranged marriages were practiced.

Nowadays, many have chosen not to have kids. Marriage is still there but the idea of raising their own is no longer appealing. To be fair, some make valid points. Check out these entries from random folks who gave reasons for not having children.

Don’t get me wrong

“I explain it to people like this – you know that feeling you get where you just can’t wait to teach your kid how to play baseball? or whatever it is you want to share with them? I don’t have that. Its basically a lack of parental instinct. Having children was never something I aspired to. My SO is the same way.”

“Don’t get me wrong, I have nothing against children. And I get really angry at people who harm them or mistreat them. I just never wanted my own.”
