^^^^My fave thing = You don't really think you want kids? Then why are you a teacher?

Um, you can WORK with kids yet not particularly want any of your own.

Also, not being sure if I want any of my own doesn't mean that I hate them.

Also, when I tell people I may consider adopting an older kid or teen at some point:

"But why would you want someone ELSE'S kid?"
"I could never love a kid that I didn't actually give birth to."
"But why would you want to miss out on the birth experience?"
"Why wouldn't you want a baby???"

Motherhood comes in many forms. To insist that a child "is not yours" because they're adopted is really offensive. Also, not everyone wants "the baby experience."
