Do most of your friends not have children?

With the exception of a couple of friends, most of mine and DH's friends don't have kids either. Most by choice, a couple not by choice.

Most of my married friends do have children. It does make getting together difficult sometimes.

Re: Do most of your friends not have children?

We were the FIRST couple out of all of our friends to get engaged (2nd to get married but that's neither here nor there Chat Icon) so with the exception of 1 or 2 friends, none of them have kids- by choice.

It's sorta 50/50 for us, but we still lose out because the friends that don't have kids are still into the club/party scene or single.

Agreed, on both counts. We have one childless couple who is engaged, but are out at bars/clubs every weekend. And another who are not married are big on drinking to the point of oblivion every weekend. Coincidentally, our friends who do have kids were all "oops" babies.

None of our friends who are around our age have kids yet. We have some friends who are around 40 and they do.

Re: Do most of your friends not have children?

no kids really... most of us that are married seem to be takin it slow... granted we're all mostly still under 30 so theres not really too much pressure either

Re: Do most of your friends not have children?

A bit of a 50/50 split.

For awhile, DH and I were the only CF couple in our group.

Then we made some new friends in the past couple of years and they are all CF.

But eventually everyone will start the baby making

There are only 3 married couples including us in our group and one of them has a child. We don't plan on having children for another 3-4 years.

No...most of my friends have children... I and one other friend are the only ones without. I'm okay with that right now.
