1.
I think having children isn't something you do because you don't have a reason not to. I would have children if I had a really good reason to, and I don't. It's an important, life-changing decision that involves an innocent person being brought into the world. I don't think I should do that just because might as well.-u/DM_Rexy -
2.
I'm selfish when it comes to my quiet time. I love being alone.-u/Worried_Jaguar_912 -
3.
I am physically disabled with a genetic circulation condition. I don't want to pass my condition onto others, and the physical aspects of raising children would be too much strain on me.-u/odysseyshot -

Expensive, plus being a teacher, I have seen enough and don't want to come home to deal with more kids.-deleted user -
5.
I like my own personal space.-u/NotYourAverage666 -

7.
I have no desire to raise a child, or care for one, or be responsible for one. I am lazy, I can take care of myself just fine, but the extra work to raise a child for something I don't want isn't worth it. I want financial freedom, freedom to make spontaneous decisions, children wouldn't allow for that-u/haircatmoon -
8.
They grow up and tell you what you did wrong.-u/badbarn85 -
9.
I refuse to f*ck up a child as badly as my parents f**ked me up, and I don't think I could cope with being responsible for an infant or a toddler. Also, my genes aren't worth passing on.-u/darthfruitbasket -

They’re expensive, loud, time-consuming, and don’t smell good.Plus I don’t feel like putting my body through a year of physical hell just to follow it up with 18 years of putting my goals and career to the side to make sure it doesn’t stick a fork in a socket or swallow a bee.-u/thatbikerchick51 -
13.
I never understood why so many want children. Life is a huge adventure without children. With children, it’s a job for twenty years-u/Hotspur2018 -

I struggled with mental health for a long time. I don't want to bring someone into this world who might suffer the same way.And I'm alone.-u/reflect-the-sun -
21.
They sh*t themselves. They drink too much milk and puke cottage cheese. Annoying most of the time. Can't talk right for like 2-3 years, then they don't make sense for the next 15-20. Expensive as f*ck. There is a chance they hate you and kill you in your sleep.I'd rather be an uncle and call it a day. -u/ASneakyKat -
22.
They’re liabilities-u/Disastrous-Resort-45 -

24.
My sister had a baby with her boyfriend while she was still living at home and I wanted to kill myself from the baby’s constant crying every hour of the day. No way in hell I would purposely put myself through that again. People with more than one kid are psychos.-u/zeroj20 -
