#nokidsforme

When people say to me, "you were a kid once, how can you hate kids?" Easy. I hated them when I WAS a kid. I had my friends, and everyone else was too much for me. I wanted quiet. I wanted to read, I wanted to be alone with my animals. I hated kids when I WAS a kid. And, "Well aren't you glad your mother didn't decide that SHE didn't want children?" Not necessarily. For one thing, if she had, I wouldn't have known about it. If I had been aborted, I would be non existent. And due to severe depression, anxiety, and other lovely mental health issues that have been passed down through my oh so stellar genetics, there have been many many days in my life where I've wished for death. So yeah, I'm grateful I'm alive, but if I wasn't... well... that would kind of just be that. If I had never existed, it wouldn't don't matter. Also, "who's going to take care of you when you get old.?" THE FUCK is that reasoning all about? You're having kids just so someone takes care of you when you're old as shit?! News flash, folks. I'll be in the same nursing home that your kids are going to drop you at and leave you. Oh and, "who's going to plan your funeral and bury you?!" Literally who gives a shit? I'll be dead. I don't think I'll be worrying about my funeral.

Someone asked me today why I wear my childfree status like a badge. Well why not? Parents wear their offspring like a badge? The thing they're most proud of. It's all they talk about, all they care about. And no matter what the conversation is that's their only talking point. So why can't I wear my childfree stance like a badge? Why can't I talk about why I'll never want them? Why is my life choice offending you so badly? And also, I just really sincerely enjoy pissing people off with things that they shouldn't care about 💁🏼

Getting an IUD before going for a tubal because I'm terrified of anesthesia. My upside for trying an iud? "At least if I get pregnant the odds of dying or becoming infertile are higher than having a viable pregnancy." I've suddenly realized I would rather suffer a medical emergency or risk death than get fucking pregnant. Tell me again how I'll change my mind?
