    41 - no kids - not going to have any either. :-)

    I have an 18-year-old lizard and a 12-year-old cat. That's plenty in my house.

    I've been saying I don't want kids since I was about 14. Nobody believed me then but they are starting to now that I am 40!

    I did marry a man with three kids but they were teenagers by then, and lived with their mum, so I'm definitely no mommy-figure to them!

    33, no kids, no husband, no boyfriend. Loving it. I know I don't qualify as 40's and childless, but I never want kids so I felt it didn't really matter what age I was! Same lifestyle really.

    44, happily married for 16 years - Childfree by Choice! I have never, ever wanted kids (and neither did my husband), but it's amazing how society gives you #&^$%^ about that. Nice to see a few others on here.

    I am 33, am I allowed to join? lol
    I have one cat and that's all I need. I travel too much for anything else. :smile: I do not want kids anyway. I have two younger siblings (6 and 9) and plenty of nieces and nephews. I love being the crazy wild aunt who travels and sends cool stuff in the mail.
    I have worked hard to create this lifestyle and love the style I picked.

    I'm about to turn 38 though so I'm close...with no kids by choice. DH and I decided years ago not to have them - we discussed it several times but always came to the same conclusion. Neither of us had a huge urge and we love our life just the way it is. Wish we could have fur babies but he's allergic to cats and we're gone too much to have a dog.

    Thankfully, in my circle of friends, this has never been a problem. Of course we got the questions in our 20's but pretty much everyone who's had kids is going to have them so it's not even discussed anymore. In fact, there are three other couples who don't have kids and likely never will.

    The only person in my life that has a problem with it is my mother. She had her hopes up for years but now that it's clear we're definitely never having kids, she'll bring it up now and then "poor me, no grandkids". Meh, her problem, not mine.

    41, no kids by choice. Have one senior dog (our other one passed last year) and we spoil the nieces and nephews, then send them home. :wink:

    Same here, in fact I still sometimes get told 'you'll change your mind one day' :laugh:

    Nice to see so many of us on here. I've always been made to feel weird because I've never wanted kids. One place I used to work I heard a rumour that I couldn't have kids and everyone should not mention kids to me because it would upset me. When I asked someone where this rumour started I was told 'We just assumed you couldn't because you don't have any' :huh:

    Hey there, I thought there were none out there as well. I'm 49 no kids, only dogs and a husband! I sure would like more friends! I'm doing ViSalus for weight loss. How are you all and how are you being healthy.

    I always knew as well, since 10 or so. Why does everyone look at you like there is something wrong with you if you don't want kids? I always thought it was good not to have one when I knew I couldn't give it what it needed. Not like some people. I have my dogs and husband and am very content with that!
