Dear Diary: I chose otherhood (childless) vs motherhood




Real Love Real Stories show

Summary: My reasons for choosing otherhood: career, freedom, time, money, and I just didnt have the right person to have kids with. Some well meaning people have said: "You will regret it when you get older, being childless is selfish, you won't understand what it is like to truly love someone, etc" The truth is I am ok with my decision and I am make a pretty awesome aunty. If I decide I want to be a mother I can always foster, or adopt.
