Re: Interesting article

great article

I especialy love this quote...

We choose to call ourselves “childfree” rather than “childless,” because we feel the term “childless” implies that we’re missing something we want — and we aren’t.

Re: Interesting article

Maybe the board should have a name change from Childless to Childfree

That's a great article.

There are so many things we could discuss from it! We should bookmark it make discussion points for when it gets boring around here Chat Icon

This quote made me laugh, and its the truth.


"What do childfree people want? For one, they want you to mind your own business. Two, they want your kids to be quiet. Other than that, they’re mostly content to live their own childfree lives in peace."



Add in: "Three, don't think my life is any more 'sad' than yours. Four, don't think I'm lazy for not having a child" and it would be perfect.

What a great article!!! I always joke that Target & other stores should have 2 hours a day where kids aren't allowed to come shopping...i cannot tell you the countless times screaming, misbehaving kids have made me want to scream myself....

I hate that its a battle between the two sides, it horrifies me

I hate that one side thinks that the way they do things is the right way.
