It looks like neither of my sons are going to have children and that's just fine with me/us. I just want peace and quiet in my life with no babysitting and gift buying for the non-existent children they're not going to have. We don't mind looking after their dogs when they go away since they are a joy.......so happy to see us every time we walk in the door.
You shouldn't let people put you down for whatever choice you make. No matter how close these people are. Being child free and independent is the best lifestyle. You are a strong willed woman 👋🙂 kudos
Hi hannah! Somtimes I regret being kid free, and on those instances when i question that pitucular decision I watch videos of Divorse Court, Paternity Court and your show and it leaves me feeling like the million dollars I saved from not being a parent. Theres nothing like being as free as a bird too! Thank you for your videos.
Tell any family members who badgers you for kids AND HAVE THEM SIGN A CONTRACT that after they are born when you realize you don’t want the kid that they agree and will adopt and are to fully take care of those kids until they are 18. That should end the badgering

I've been trying to conceive for a while now , still no positive results. I'm so done taking medications, they didn't help me at all. The feeling of wanting to have a baby made me sad and depressed. But you've changed my mind, I guess I'll stop calling myself a childless woman and start using the word childfree instead .
that’s pretty cool. My husband delt with it on his side. She was so busy helping her daughter with her 3 grandkids that she pressured her son only for a bit and then let go. However since I passed a certain age, she treats me differently. Early on there were all sorts of pressures about her trying to get close to me but I am way different than a conservative country woman. I realized later that her early attempts to get close to me or whatever were to have leverage on the grandbabies she thought we’d have, or a way to control her son through me. All sorts of drama episodes over the years. Quite bitter resentful old lady. Surprising? Motherhood does all sorts of evil things to women; it transforms them into the evil witch.
I really enjoyed this video, it was just very casual and almost like you was having a normal conversation with us, how are your Cats? Do you think you will have any more or stay with 2?
Glad you enjoyed the video. The furs are doing really well and they have a great dynamic together so I don't think I'll add to the fur crew at this point.
@@WifeWithoutKids that's a good idea, Cats can be very sensitive when new arrivals come in, it's a good thing you don't have kids, they can annoy Animals especially very young kids, 1 very good reason to not have them
Been binging your videos lately. I'm 27 and my husband is 32. We got married in 2016 when we were 20 and 25. We bought our first home in 2019. In the beginning people asked us about kids a lot and we always just said we didnt know when we'd have kids. At this point they've mostly stopped, I think most people assume we aren't having any. As we get older I keep waiting for the "urge" to want kids but don't feel it. I asked my mom if I talked about kids when I was younger because I know a lot of little girls dream about having babies. My mom said I only talked about dogs which is so fitting because I am a mom to three corgis now. I can't recall us ever talking or even thinking about kids before we bought our house. Once we bought our house we started discussing if we wanted kids or not. My husband says he doesnt care if we have kids or not and that he'd do whatever I want but that he'd only want one if we did. I feel very content with our life the way that it is but I do worry about FOMO if we don't have a kid. I wish that I felt strongly one way or another. I feel like I cant decide. If we do have one I think I'd likely wait another 10 years. I would be 37 and I don't see a problem with that but again I can picture this childfree life for us also and I can't make up my mind.
I have PCOS and my periods are really irregular. I don't have pain or anything. Eventhough having period may suck, not having period sucks even more because it means other things are suffering like more hair growth or mood swings. It is a double edged sword tbh... Eventhough I'm going to be child free, so I don't particular need the period part, just the hormonal part is imbalanced.
1:31 best thought ever, it crossed my mind as well when I was a couple years younger from now and I still think it's relevant and a better solution instead of being stuck with it until a certain age then gone by itself, it'd be so much better for many to be able to switch it on or off whenever one wants and needs and for us childfree would be off from beginning till end.
Come on, Disney is for everyone! Most of us grew up with Disney and you can't stop me from meeting Simba, Jack Sparrow or Donald Duck! Actually I've been to Disneyland (Paris) for the first time in my life at the age of 33 and I loved it!! My family could just never afford to take us there as a kid so now I caught up on my dream. But my friends and I actually thought it's not a good place for little kids because of all the long queues. Maybe the queues were the reason why this mother wants to ban childfree adults?
When I gave blood recently they don't do anaesthetc ( I am a wuss), they said it was because a specialist nurse has to come in.. and that costs money...
Being childfree and still getting cycles is the biggest misjustice imo. I take the pill continuously without breaks so I don't have to live with the curse. I'd get a hysterectomy if I could but I'm not going to pay a stranger to penatrate me just to give me the "You'll change your mind." BS and send me away. Pills it is.
Ugh I get you. I assumed you were American (sorry, I'm like you also Canadian AND Swiss.) Mom came here from Switzerland - we are very similar! And childfree! I work with kids (for now) I'm looking into getting into the trades but I'll always carry bandaids and alcohol wipes lol.
How can I know if my choice to not have kids is based on mistakes made by your own parents? I don’t want to make major life choices based on bitterness.
Personally I'm a fan of forgiving people, even when they've hurt us. Not because they necessarily deserve it or ask for it, but because to not forgive means I'm carrying around a lot of anger and that's a huge burden to hold on to. If we can forgive people it gives us a clearer picture of what we want in our own lives and lets us work towards that without the emotions of the past dictating our plans. It's really hard to do, but I've found it's worth it in my experience.
Hannah I'm sorry you have a autoimmune disease I hope you feel better and it goes away. I wanted to ask you have you ever checked your body's pH level. Usually, when our bodies are on the acidic side we become deficient in a lot of things. You can do a at home pH test to see where you are. I really enjoyed watching your videos. I would like to give $ but only through PayPal. Can I give through PayPal? Thanks Hannah ✨
My autoimmune disease has gotten a lot better! I was diagnosed 10 years ago and have had a lot of testing done that's been helpful in getting a diagnosis and treatment. Thanks for your suggestion. I've appreciated your support of this channel and the videos I make and it is so generous of you to want to send me money, although I absolutely don't expect that from anyone. You can message me at wifewithoutkids@gmail.com if you'd like.💜
OMG,if I was your in law I would plead to see my grandchildren.It seems selfish to purposefully kill out the family line! Cease all the chatter,have your sons and daughters. Children are your real gold.
