There are absolutely times you will miss something due to your kid. Unless you are the a-hole husband from nurses post

sorry, not sorry
I love being able to use my kids as excuses...because no one will ever question you when you bring kids into the equation.

I have no problem with people who don't want to have kids
But it's strange to me when people get married and don't want kids. Why get married in the first place? You're just gonna get sick of that person after 20-30 years anyway.

I will say that working in law I've seen this scenario a few times. I'm in the same boat as far as SO career goes, but mine would gladly trade a partnership for being a stay at home mom at this point. Of course, I've seen that play out differently too (career driven professional women convinced they want to drop it all for family life and end up going to back to work within a couple of years).
You never know. Things could change of course but if I were betting money, I wouldn't bet it on her wanting children enough to ever do it. Based on what I know of her. And also her other reasons unrelated to work.

I meant she couldn't enjoy herself with her husband texting her phone non stop with "how much longer are you going to be out" texts.
She loves her child and husband dearly...she just needed a little time to herself to enjoy chatting and drinking with an old friend.

Im talking about young kids. None of my friends have teenagers
Even when they were younger we could get a babysitter or have friends/family watch them. Unless it's an infant it's not that hard. People use their kids as an excuse when they really don't want to go.

That's a husband problem, not a kid problem. He sounds like a needy idiot

Having kids while having enough money for regular baby sitters, vacations, help around the house, etc. doesn't seem bad at all.
My in laws had a nanny they even brought on vacation with them
That's my plan.

I will say this. If you think there is a chance yall will decide on kids later on....consider getting some tests done now to see where you stand fertility wise. Many fertility doctors offer this kind of testing to couples that aren't ready to have kids yet...but just want to make sure they won't have trouble when they are ready.
You take for granted that you can just have kids when you want. I would have made different choices if I knew then what I know now.

My life will always be about me. I will do things out of love for my wife or future children, but I'm the one making the decision to do so.

No issue with them until they try to provide advise on kids or parenting. Then, frick em.
This is such a strange stance, one completely separate from how we think about other areas of life, or just reason in general. It's an appeal to authority.
I can understand the differences between a good parent and a bad parent. And if we agree that bad parents exist, then it stands to reason that having a child does not make one an expert on parenting. So what makes one a good parent, if not having a child?
Advice on parenting is either good or bad. The source is irrelevant. If I take my advice and make my mother offer it to you, will it then be good advice?
