I’m child-free by choice — my ‘purpose’ in life is to shop, nap and get manicures
New York Post ^ | March 6, 2024 | Alexandra Klausner

All that she wants is another … handbag.

A woman named Stephanie Noble, who goes by @iamstephanienoble on TikTok, said she’s child-free by choice and would rather take naps than deal with a screaming child.

“Being a mother is the most important job in the world, but it doesn’t mean every woman needs to sign up for that,” the content creator and business owner told The Post. In a video posted four days ago, now with almost 3 million views, she said she constantly has to defend her kid-free stance.

” I am so grateful to God that I had children”

Good for you.

In the 90s we tried and tried and spent many many thousands of dollars to get pregnant and were unsuccessful.

When we hear things like this or see people treating their kids harshly in public it really is sad.

What is even sadder, there are people who do not want to have children to “save the Earth”.

Total idiots!

Well maybe it’s best she not have children and she is correct not ever woman make good mothers.

Spinster women have always lived in our society and been happy.

Just as long as her choice to remain child-free does not include abortion or otherwise killing a baby I don’t care.

Parenting is like singing. No one should be encouraged to do it if they don’t want to.

After my father-in-law died, we never left my mother-in-law alone overnight, even once, for the next 3 years until she, too, passed away. I have never regretted a single time my wife had to spend the night with her mother. It was just her and her sister who took care of their mother. We even moved closer to make it possible. I can’t even describe how our family has been so blessed as a result. Twenty years later we’re still reaping the blessings. My in-laws were wonderful people and I was so blessed to have them. I miss them still.

But for the last 50 years society and the government have been discouraging it.

I chose not to have children for a valid reason — I knew I wouldn’t be able to work and support them due to illness.

But then, later in life, God rewarded me with five step- granddaughters to finish raising! And we’re doing well!

Let me tell you something honey, Stephanie, I have three children, two engineers and a medical doctor. I’d rather be me than you.

My Mom had six kids in her family. She had four of her own. Her brother had sixteen! Two sets of twins. Times have changed. Now we are aborting or sterilizing the next generation of American citizens and importing their America hating, mooching replacements.

She looks attractive, albeit vacuous, to me.

I had a good friend who died last year. He was smart and talented and made loads of money, but he squandered everything on cars, women and drugs. To the point that his family had to manage his money and transportation in the last 8 or 10 years of his life. He never married and never had children which probably was a good thing given his life style, but as he got older he told me many times how much he regretted not having any children . He spent time with his nieces and nephews but he really felt like he had cheated himself.

It’s nobody’s business whether someone has five kids — or none.

A woman with these priorities ain’t cut out for motherhood.
