Date: 2014-01-07 11:58 am (UTC)I ALWAYS knew that I didn't want kids, too, even when I was quite young. I never really got along with kids, even when I was one -- I always preferred hanging out with the adults. Also, it seemed to me from my observations that raising kids was not very much fun was expensive, and physically taxing. Funny, I like taking care of people, but only if they don't NEED me to. Otherwise, I feel trapped.
