I've known since I was 16 that I didn't want children...I have never had an inkling to change that. I tell people I wasn't installed with a biological time clock!! My friends all have children and I love playing with them, but never when holding the babies or playing with the toddlers does anything trigger in me that says, "I need to have one of these." My sister is the same way...
My husband and I are on the same page (thank goodness!)...when we started dating, I was very up front with him about this. At first, he wasn't sure about it, but after a while, he realized that he felt the same way, but never had a reason to think about it. We've been married 10 years and this has never become an issue between us...
My dad, on the other hand, is now wanting grandchildren. He's bribed my sister saying that he'd pay for the college education if she had children. I told him I'd have a baby, but then he'd have to raise it for the next 25 years!! (I thought it was a good compromise)...He didn't like that one! LOL
