    I always get the "But you'd make such a great mom" speech. I usually respond with, "I also think I'd make a great prostitute but I don't plan on trying that either."

    I love this response!!! It's not one that came to mind, but I am totally using it from here on out.

    Brilliant! :flowerforyou:

    This is a great come back. Love it!! I am more than 40 and not only do not have kids but I have never wanted them. I am the oldest of 8 and I have changed more diapers and baby-sat more than many mothers. YUCK!! Must say it turned me off them.

    41 and no kids - by circumstances not choice. But proud aunt of 10 nieces and nephews who I love spoiling when ever I travel back to that side of the world. Would love more friends in this category.

    I am 45 without kids. I am married but that didnt happen until 41. i am happy as a lark as a spiritual mama to nieces and nephews. Didnt have to get stretched marks and give birth to be a mama.

    I'm 50 and we're childless by choice. Agree with others that say it's really not SO rare! :smile:

    I am 29 and me and my husband have no kids. I married my high school sweetheart and tried to get pregnant since I was 23. I got diagnosed with unexplained fertility. Then my husband got cancer and the chemotherapy made him not able to have children. So we are that couple with no kids. I get sad sometimes. But I help with my nieces and nephews and love being a good aunt!!

    39 next month, married for almost 14 years and child free. Definitely not common as a military spouse but it's nice to see so many of us on MFP!

    I'll be 41 in about 6 weeks married 10 years and no kids. This is a great idea for a message board
