The decision to have kids or not is an incredibly personal one, but that doesn’t stop people from acting like it’s their business. Child-havers love to hound the happily childfree, pressuring them into making the same decision they did. What those people fail to realize (and this is a tough one), is that you never know what it’s like to be somebody else. No matter how hard you try, you will never know what it’s like in someone else’s brain. So odds are they know better than you, and they’re probably pretty happy with their decision. 

But when you’re young, it can be hard to tune out those voices and listen to your inner one. So luckily, the good people of Reddit have come together to assuage some fears about going through life without kids. Different strokes for different folks, y’all! Every decision you make has to be the right one because guess what, you made it!
