Quotes About Childfree

Don't badger people without children into admitting the secret desire for children you're sure they have to you! Don't badger anyone! Leave the badgering to the badgers.
~ Mallory Ortberg
I was with someone at 19, and I was married at 23, and I didn't want kids when I was in my 20s.
~ Aisha Tyler
But to me, the lack of desire to have a child is innate. It exists outside of my control. It is simply who I am and I can take neither credit nor blame for all that it may or may not signify. But the decision to honor that desire, to find a way to be whole on my own terms even if it means facing the judgment, scorn, and even pity of mainstream society, is a victory. It's a victory I celebrate every day.
~ Meghan Daum
