    Women With Infertility or No Children.. I have a Question for you.


    I have not been able to have a sucessful pregnancy and do not have any children. Due to
    my infertility caused by the PCOS. I can't seem to stop encoutering rude people that ask. "Why don't I have any kids? Especially woman.. There is a certain way to ask that question.I am wondering have anyone else been looked down on, because they don't have a house full of kids?? it's quite heartbreaking and usually makes me weary. But It's turning to anger because of the stupidity behind it...
    I had yet another encounter with a woman who has 4 kids.. Not married and different fathers for all of them. Has the nerves to ask me Why don't I have any.. it took great restraint to deal with her.. I wanted to slap her in her face. How do you deal with people and there rude comments??

    I've been married less that 2 months so I haven't had to deal with a problem like that, yet. I can never have children, at least in the normal way. I'm sure I would be devastated if someone made rude remarks to me about why I don't have children. It's none of their business and I would tell them so.

            I get that, they look at me like I'm some kind of freak because I don't have children. Some women have gone so far as to figure out I don't have any then move away from me because they don't want to talk to someone they feel hasn't got anything in common with them. I'm always being asked why I don't have any at 37. I ignore the rude ones, my friends know the situation and I don't see why I should have to explain to strangers so I don't.
