People can be quite rude. I think its simply unacceptable to question someone about having children. You have no idea if they are infertile and not being able to have kids is emotionally painful or if it is a personal choice.

I agree with the poster who said that women are expected to automatically love children. I'm female and I don't have a desire for kids. In fact, my anxiety disorder is so bad that a screaming child can set me off for the rest of the day with anxiety literally shooting through my system. But, can I tell anyone this? Nooooo.....they all think I am a child-hater. (Yes, I have been attacked for not automatically thinking that kids are the best things EVER.)

I hate to say it (ok, I love to say it, just not out loud), but I love my unborn, never will be children more than a lot of people love the children they actually have. Maybe I've spent too much time in the company of others who were also abused as children, I don't know. I just know there are a heck of a lot of people who don't plan for kids, just end up preggo, and then treat their kids like crap because they never really wanted them. I think these people should be questioned more than those of us who consciously decide that kids aren't for us!
