A perfect example of a strong childfree woman is Dolly Parton. She’s proof that womanhood =/= motherhood. And also proof that you can have no children of your own, while still deeply caring about the well-being of all children. She’s like my favorite person ever if you can’t tell, lol.
I love this! My husband and I feel complete and fulfilled as a child free couple. We get to do whatever we want whenever we want, have more money to spend on ourselves and each other! Love the child free community :)
You are absolutely right! My wife and I have been in a childfree marriage for almost 5 years and have NEVER wanted a child. We have all the focus on us, all the time, all the energy, we do what we want. And of course, we spend all our money only on us.
Great video….I enjoy the childfree content…Iam a 32 year old man and Iam childfree….I struggle with depression real bad and it affects my ability to take care of my self Iam definitely glad I don’t have children it’s no way I would be able to take care of them proud of my childfree choice
I knew but never identified with the word “childless” for years because it meant that a couple wishes or tried to have a kid for years but eventually gave up. So I continued to assume I would have kids one day. Then I felt relief and joy beyond imaginable when I discovered the childfree community. I’m so glad I finally discovered where I belong! Love you all! ❤️

Yaa walaupun ada enaknya jadi manusia, gue tetap tidak punya anak.
I have experienced both child and child free life. Due to the death of my child over 30 years ago. I loved her with my whole heart. But would I do it again knowing what I now know? Probably not. I would not want to bring another human being into such a patriarchal system. There are many other reasons as well. It's definitely different for everyone and a very personal choice. Those are just my thoughts. Take care, and thanks for putting out such articulate and useful information.
Not having children gave me the time and space to work on my economic situation, and while that is a work in progress, as I gradually get above water my stress is coming down and I am opening up more space to work on myself.
This is often so necessary. Sometimes I find myself wondering how anyone manages to pay for the cost of raising children when often affording just one life alone (our own) is enough as it is. I'm so happy to hear that things are improving in your life and stress is less of a factor now! It's such a huge sense of relief!
I hate that question who will take care of you when you're old? Uh there's home health care. I'm going to look into the for my mom because I don't want to take care of her when she gets older. But if you take care of yourself and live a healthy lifestyle you might not even need anyone to take care of you when you are older. You can't put that on your kids. That is selfish.
I’m single/unmarried and childfree both by choice. I’m a natural introvert which means I both want and need to be alone, that is impossible with a spouse and children. I have issues with mental health (depression and anxiety disorder) and being married with kids wouldn’t be a good route for me. I would be in a constant state of worry about my partner being faithful and my children being safe.
This was very beautifully said, freedom to do what is best for us in spite of the popular or trends, and expectations! People fulfill their happiness by having kids, why not fullfill yourself by making 5he choice not having them!?! Oh you should checkout the dr phil video, i want to see your reaction to it. Called "Dr. Phil: The Controversial Trend of Chooing to be Childfree"
Great video you are right to me being childfree means breaking a cycle i don't want to continue the cycle of generational trauma like my parents and living my life on my own terms oh i just found out zoe Kravitz is also childfree by choice
Generational trauma is hard enough to deal with especially when certain aspects get unleashed that you never thought you would experience (like in moments of high stress/anxiety). Trauma can be passed down in our DNA as far as our maternal grandmothers as well so we truly mean it by saying it ends with us. That is great to know! I'll have to add her name to the list of childfree individuals to cover!
I'm going to be childfree because I do not want to pass down my shitty genetics and I'm not going to put my precious body through pregnancy!😆 and I ain't adopting because I ain't rich 👆Unless its a cat! Cat ladies rule!

Ypur awesome kelsey, you are always valid in your childfree decision love your channel
Thank you so much!

Expecting your children to become your nursemaid is a terrible reason to have kids. It sounds day like indentured servitude.
