This is not going to devolve into an "I am evil for not having kids thread" is it????
To: Jersey Republican Biker Chick
Yes, but I was waiting until you showed up to push it in that direction. ;o)

in 2004, 44 percent of American women of childbearing ages were childlessMany individual "choices" add up to national suicide.

Iirc, this study defined “childbearing age” as 13 and up. I’m personally very happy that my 16-year-old daughter is childless.

I don’t care whether or not a woman has kids. If you pushed me, I’d probably lean towards the side of selfishness for not choosing but honestly, I really don’t care.
I do take offense at this statement, thought. “...the reason is that more and more women are becoming educated.” Am I ignorant for having children?

She has no life because she has no kids, or because she is talking about it????????

Some people also wonder what will happen to women without a brood when they age.Since the few who have husbands will generally outlive them, they are more or less guaranteed to die alone.
But parents who have children without the expectation that their children will care for them in their older years can be disappointed.
I'll take care of my folks for as long as they live.
Some parents may not have kids who will do that: life is a gamble.
Those who have no children are guaranteeing that no one will be left to look after them.
A few years from now there will be a ton of childless women in their 80s warehoused in long-term care facilities whose only visitors will be paid caregivers who aren't particularly fluent in English.

My brother & SIL chose not to have children and yes, they live high on the hog.
Still I wouldn't trade having my daughter for all the money in the world. Guess I'm ignorant too. :o)

To: Millee
I think it is something that each individual knows deep down.
I know I am not meant to have kids and I am not going to!!!
To: Millee
"We are a hypocritical society," said Cain. "On one hand, we tell women that they have the right to have an abortion, but we expect them to have children at some point in their lives." Huh. Must be talking about hypocritical Liberals. She's certainly not describing me.

Many individual "choices" add up to national suicide. Somewhere around 1955 there were 150 million in the USA. Now there are 300 million. It does not appear there is any shortage of people.
