1 August is International Childfree Day
1972:
"Shirley Radl and Ellen Peck founded the National Organization for Non-parents (NON) as a non-profit in California, USA.
NON declared itself an “educational organization to make the childfree lifestyle a realistic and socially accepted and respected option, and to eliminate pronatalist social and economic discrimination”."
Does the attitude of this child appear to have changed in all of her years on Earth?
NOPE.
Have nothing but supreme admiration for mothers and fathers; it's the hardest job in the universe.

Am thankful to have found a spousal unit who was of the same opinion: no kids.
But he was okay with cats, so it's a win-win situation.
*One Income No Kids

No Children Here either and that was a decision made by us not by a higher source. Life is still good anyway.

ReplyDeleteAfter dealing with my 2 nieces overnight, I have a better respect for mothers. I am a proud childless cat lady too. Wouldn't want it any other way.
ReplyDeleteIt's a good decision if it's your decision. We had 4 kids and wouldn't trade them for anything but I admire greatly all who make different life choices.
