"Bro I can barely handle a full-time job and taking care of a cat. I do not have the time, money, patience, or desire to raise a kid. I want to live my life, not be weighed down with a responsibility I don't want and wouldn't be beneficial for me. I like having the freedom to not have to deal with all that."

AMEN! Married 32 years. Wife didn't want the little bastards, I didn't want the little bastards. Lots of traveling, money and fun. I love the response of parents, when they say "Oh I wouldn't do it again, but I love my kids". Not I love my kids first. Watched friends and siblings raise these little monsters. Just watching them in the teenage years was more than enough validation for us.

I "decided" for a childless life because my ex-wife lied to me about having children. Now I'm divorced and not sure if I will ever have the oppurtunity again.

Some comments are true and sincere, but others are just a mix of misconceptions and personal problems, probably caused by bad parents. But ... this is life... In the end if you are not into it, this is the best choice.
Put a child in the world and not give then love to transform then in a real pearson would be a crime.

Have fun with no one you can truly trust to take care of you when you are too old to do it for yourself.
Kids are a lot of work, and a lot of people are clearly too weak and fragile to handle it, but when you aren't a terrible parent it's amazing how great having a family an be.

Predator, Well, if you're having kids to take of you when you older, you're a selfish pos. I know of many parents, many that their kids have long disowned them, and screwed them over. To bring a kid into this over populated messed up world is delusional and the ultimate selfish act. GTFU

Dalton,No. It's just a side benefit. Did you read the, "...but if you aren't terrible parents..." part? I don't think that comment deserved such vitriol.

Not one example of an incel being the reason they chosen not to have kids or well had it trust upon them because not one member of the female gender would want to have sex with them.

I was selfish and wanted my life to be for and about me. Now I'm middle-aged, divorced, childless and alone. Hooray for me.

Here's the secret: Men, if you can, put off kids until you are in you early/mid 40's. That's what I did. I was financially secure, no longer wanting to party excessively, and had a much better understanding of the world and of people. Along came my daughter for whom I had all the time in the world and it has been an absolute blast. Being a great dad is incredibly easy when the time is right and you realise that nothing compares to the only unconditional two way love that exists.
