What do you think when you meet a couple who decided to not have kids?

Allipet · 07-23-2009, 11:35 AM

Hello everyone,

I am a graduate student and am currently doing research for my multicultural class (getting a degree in school counseling). I am exploring the culture of couples who decide to have children versus couples who decide to not have children. I would appreciate any thoughts on the subject like your personal opinion on mommyhood culture (what is it?), what you truly think when meeting couples who decide to not have kids, and what your life is like post kids. All information will be kept anonymous. Thank you for your time and consideration.

It's their choice. I usually think they are being responsible and intelligent. Just because one can reproduce doesn't mean one should.

We do not allow any educational surveys without proof that they have been reviewed by a committee that ensures the survey cannot hurt those involved, regardless of anonymity. This thread will be closed.
