... having kids. In all honesty I'm so very happy happy for all my friends and their beautiful families but when I personally think of having kids I get a panic attack. I feel like I would have to give up so much for something I've never really imagined myself doing. When I think of my future I think about my growing business, continuing school, traveling and just being with my husband. Why is that such a bad thing ? Why do women feel the need to pressure women to having kids ? Why is not okay to be happy child free ???? Just really weighing in my mind. If my fiancé accepts not having children why can't anyone else ?

Everyone has their own opinion. I guess some people seem to believe that having kids is one of the main goals in everyone's life, even if this is not so. I know a few married couples here and there that don't have kids, and they're just as happy as a married couple who does have kids. You shouldn't worry about what everyone else thinks you should do; as long as you and your husband are okay with it, then there's no problem. There is no problem about not wanting kids; in fact, I find it to be perfectly normal. Don't let it bring you down. I hope you enjoy your happy, child free life with your fiancé.
I actually feel the same way you do. I'm 29 and happy just the way things are. I believe its up to you and what makes you happy. I personally don't want a relationship or kids do to taking too much time from me. Not everyone is suppose to be the same we all have different goals and expectations in life . That's what makes this world a beautiful place. If we were all the same it would be chaotic and boring. I hope this helps you.
