other women not wanting kids?

I never want to have children and yes I know people always say your 23 your still young. I never liked children as a kid I did not play family, I still do not like or want children. I hate how much pressure there is from my family and anyone who meets me to have children. I keep telling them i do not want any, its not a legal requirement to have children. I hate when people say you will change your mind.the thing that really hurts me is that my parents say your takeing away my ability to be a grandparent and continue our bloodline. I do not want to hurt my parents but if i have a child i will be hurting the child because i would be a bad parent. you should not have children unless you really want children. Anyone elce feel like they never want to have children?

I ended up having two. I do have a friend who dreamed if she had a child it would have severe problems so she has never kids. Another friend I always thought she would have a bunch of kids. Children just swarm around her naturally. She was a nanny for a long time. Now she wants to one day adopt teenage girls with behavior problems. I think she's crazy. You might change your mind one day or you might not. It's your life. Live it how you want to live and not how others expect you to live it. Deciding not to have children for whatever reason is a responsible and mature choice.
