21 w/no kids. What’s your opinion?
I'm honestly just using this as a tiktok comment section bc of the limit lmao.
I want kids when I'm at least 28-30 (as I'll have my life sorted by then hopefully) - obsolutely not at 21. I want to go to uni, get a degree and pursue it. That's my life ambition. I want my 20s to be about me, myself and I. I'd honestly have kids later, but my mum had early menopause at, I think, 37-38, and I've heard it's genetic so I don't want to miss my chance. Because it seems that when a woman becomes a mother, that's all she is. When a woman becomes a wife, that's all she is to society. I don't want to live like that, where my kids become my whole personality. I want my life to be about me, because at the end of day, it's my life. But when you have kids you have to work around their life as well. 'I wanna go get my nails done but I need to pick up X, Y and Z from school' - 'I wanna go on holiday but don't know where the kids can go?'
I saw a video the other day where a woman was like 'I can't think of anything better than my child. I've never experienced love like this before. Genuine question, why do you not want kids?' - bc some people just don't. Some people don't like kids, they just don't. Why is it so hard to understand 😭
