Which of these words is used to describe the voluntary choice not to have children?

I'm a child free person and boy am I glad I am!! no sleepless nights and no teenage problems either!!

Jo Aldridge, I don't think you're crazy. My daughter doesn't want children either. I respect her decision, as I respect yours. Society puts too much emphasis on "finding a partner" and "continuing the family line." Live your life, as YOU see fit, and if people harass you about having a child, tell THEM to go adopt!

Also, as an only child I did not have a charmed life. I am pleased to not have children. Others should not judge me.

Some have also taken into consideration environmental global warming and the carbon footprint of children

I have four children and I love them to pieces and cannot imagine my life without them. But I don't understand why some people cannot accept, and criticize, others' choice to not have kids. It's their life, and they know what's best for them. Just mind your own business

I'm a 56 year old woman and I've chosen not to have children. many people have judged me for this. when I was 30 I asked the doctor to tie my tubes. and she said what if a guy comes along and he wants kids? my response was that he's not the perfect guy. I think women need to think about this and what that's going to mean to their lives before they have children

I couldn't imagine my life without my chidren, the joy and love they've brought to our lives is immeasurable. Also, I'm glad my parents weren't childless.

I am childfree by choice. I was not I'm a good marriage during my younger years.

I want to have children someday!! i want to have 5 boys and 3 girls!! 8 kids!! i think it would be nice!! or just any amount of kids is fine to me!! just want to have a kid!! or kids!! either way fine to me!! fine to me!

They're D.I.N.K.S dual income no kids!!! that is what D.I.N.K stands for!!

That pic is fantastic as it really portrays the feeling :D

watch the movie "Idiocracy", then decide to be egoistic or not

Some friends of mine would have said Anarchy.

I think it’s a great personal choice to make in these last days. ( child free ) ! ! !
