   We want to hear from childfree women: share your experience ► https://guardiannewsandmedia.formstack.com/forms/being_childfree_in_the_us

2. dont worry, government will import more replacement migrants 😁

3. Childfree women wont d!e alone, they will have their partner (if married/dating) friends, family by there side. Not having kids can teach you to be by yourself and not be dependent on your kids when they get older.

4. I'm 41 and not a mother by choice. I've been called selfish many, many times. I've been told that my life would be pointless, that no one would take care of me when I'm old…like nursing homes are bursting with thankful sons and daughters 24/7. I realized that NOT having the desire was the #1 indicator. I'm proud if my choice, I honestly do not care what people tell me anymore. My happiness depends on something else.

5. How hard is it for women to resist becoming a mother? Even though many women have talked about how they don't ever want to get pregnant, they often go back on these promises. Time and time again, we've seen women get to the stage in their life when suddenly they realize that they really, really want to become a mom. That's why you'll regret it when you're old and alone. Time waits for no-one!

6. Life provides you experiences. The experience of living for yourself and in complete freedom is given for free to all of us. Everyone will experience the childless life. However, there is only one way of living the experience of having and raising children.

7. How I love this comments section ❤

   I think those women who love and dream to get married and have children are the ones to take that path.Since when and why did marriage & children have became a ground rule for survival? Eventually this alone has caused a lot of stress for women around the world trapping her into everything but her one beautiful life!

8. I have four sons all productive. All those of my generation who didn’t have children should be made to pay an extra tax to pay for my sons to having to cleans their arses when they’re unable to.
   Raising children is a massive massive massive (get the idea) undertaking.
   My children will be contributing when my childless compatriots will be dependent on all manner of things.
   It ain’t fair!!!!!!
   Capeesh MotherF#*%ers

9. Promote this in Africa

10. I'm glad i didn't have kids 😂😂😂😂😂😂

11. Children will never make you happy. People are always expecting that to happen…never does. That l BELEAVE is a huge part of postpartum depression. The reality hits.

12. YOU GOING TO REGRET IT AS YOU GET OLDER FAMILY EVERYTHING

13. There is no financial, emotional, spiritual, logical, etc. reason for any couple to have more than two kids. I have yet to find a SINGLE person that can give me a legitimate reason according to their worldview what they would gain by having more than two kids. The reason is because anything more than two kids is irresponsible and selfish. The person that has 4/5/6/7+ kids is way more selfish and way more detrimental to society and the world as a whole than the person that has zero kids FACT.

14. I hate kids…

15. It should be illegal to wind our own guitar strings too tight because that might break the string!!! pleeease make that illegal!

16. The reason I don't want to have kids is that I don't think I have enough patience, maturity, and wisdom to raise a kid. Making kids is not about having a baby. It's about raising a person, who has no clue about the world. It's not do you want a baby, its do you want to raise a person. The worst thing you wanna do is make an irresponsible, emotionally neglected child who has many issues. The baby phase only lasts a year. Think carefully before deciding to ruining a tiny being's life

17. Kaitlin should be donating her eggs to science. She’s indescribably gorgeous. Absolutely the ultimate possible ideal in female attractiveness.

18. Children are everyone's retirement plan. Who pays for Social Security and Medicare/Medicaid ?

19. Ending song in this vid is called My O My by Cospe in case anyone was wondering 😊

20. Women who are in their 20s dont have an opinion on not having kids. Talk to kidless women in their 40s, who have actually stuck by that position.

    This whole video is bunk

21. Making a decent place for children to grow and develop properly is bigger than just getting married and expecting one man to protect and provide money…Our problems run waaay deeper that…This system was designed for most people to struggle and fall short…The top 1percent never earned anything and history should have taught you this by now…Thats if they even teach history anymore…You know…They wouldnt want to offend anybodies children right…

22. Everybody is not mentally and physically fit to be parents and the world is a mess because of selfish greedy irrational religious men…

23. Antinatalism is the only way

24. Natural selection is coming to a conclusion that the Western people is not appropriate for the system.

25. when you got cash to take care of your grandchildren than only you should plan have kids. i dont want kids I'm middle class person who cant afford in this stressful society

26. Their are many couples that don't want kids nowadays

27. Ladies,no,stop this self deception,this path to self annihilation,this emptiness.
    Have your young,meet your destiny,know the future,have your babies…nothing else counts much.

28. Best thing I had was finding someone who also didn't want kids, I hope to find that again.
