I truly believe I was called to be a father (among other things). I love my kids more than I thought possible.
But my god it can be draining. Whenever someone says they don’t want kids or aren’t sure if they do or not, I completely understand. No one should ever be “talked into” having kids.
Some people know they want kids and look forward to being a parent their whole lives. Others are like you and know it’s not for them. Either feeling is so valid!
I got snipped before having kids. You have no idea how many people think I’m an alien for this.
Like, if I came out as trans and chose to have a reassignment, they’d be more understanding.
