My husband and I don't want kids but our parents want grandkids, how should I tell them?

He and I talked and decided we didn't want kids before marrying, but our parents said they hoped for grandkids someday.

Tell them and say you want to travel etc and not be tied down with the responsibility of kids. Kids are not for everyone, and people have a choice nowadays. Years ago, your parents just went along with what everyone else did and had kids. It's your life, not their's.
