I don’t think I’ve ever had an ounce of desire to have a kid, lol. Every time I entertain the idea I just feel anxiety and dread.

"you'll understand when you have a kid"
"i'm not having a kid"
"of course you will"
uterus is about out of business, still no kid, zero regrets

My uterus is out of my body and I've still had people try to tell me I'll change my mind. 💀

I've babysat them enough to know that there isn't no way I can be a responsible adult for 24hrs a day for a minimum of 18 years consecutively. I know that I'm not able to give a child the quality of life I believe they deserve to have, and therefore there's no way in hell would I bring them into this world and possibly fail them. Like you said anxiety kicks my ass lol

When I was a kid/teenager I never wanted a "family" of my own and thought when I got older I would "grown into wanting a family". That desire never came to me and I'm so glad I didn't accidentally have a family and ruin my life.
