I am finding myself seemingly a member of a minority; adults who do not wish to have children. At work, I am in a department of roughly 40 people; ALL of them have kids. 90 percent of the people I hung out with in high school have one or more kids already.
I am 25, living happily with my boyfriend and my pets; we have discussed marriage but really see nothing wrong with life the way it is now. This has no bearing on the kid thing though; I just don't feel any urge, any desire to have kids. I have a strong nurturing instinct, as most women (and maybe men) do; but I spend a ton of time caring for our pets (the horses especially, but also things like cleaning tanks, etc.) as well as tending a garden and housework, not to menthin working over 40 hours a week.
So am I just an oddball? I get alot of the "so, when ya's having kids?" thing at work, family gatherings, etc. and I always reply with "we have animals." Your thoughts on this?
