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.

I know a woman who has one daughter, and she was disappointed when the daughter and husband made this announcement. It was particularly hard because my friend is also estranged from her mother and her sisters.

But she took it in stride, supported their decision, and continues to have a great relationship with them.
