How young is too young to decide that you want to be voluntarily childless?

I do t think you’re ever too young. I’ve known since I was like 7 or 8. Nobody believed me, and I constantly was told I’d change my mind, but 17 years later I haven’t.

Even if I do change my mind, even if anyone does, it doesn’t mean they didn’t genuinely believe that then. So similarly, even if you don’t tell anyone because nobody believes you, if in 20 years you still don’t have kids you can honestly say you’ve felt that way for decades.

You feel How you feel. Your feelings are always truthful and anyone telling you they know how you feel better than you do is being an entitled narcissist (or at the very least really fucking annoying).
