Can someone explain to me how it would EVER be considered selfish to not have kids? That doesn't even make sense. I agree with what Lady Pi Phi said -- hopefully, you decide to have kids or not have kids based on your knowledge of yourself and what you want out of life. If that's "selfish" then who in the world isn't selfish?
I think people get confused -- obviously, if you have kids, you have to be unselfish a lot of the time and put the kids before your own desires. It doesn't follow from that, though, that you're selfish if you don't want to have kids. It just means that you know yourself and know that it's not for you, which isn't selfish at all.
