#8: Kid-Free Future
These days it feels as though people have more of a legitimate option to choose whether or not they want to have children. Once upon a time, this wasn’t even a possible thought… There is a lot of freedom in being able to choose things for yourself, but like any decision, there are always repercussions.
When someone chooses not to have children, there is somewhat of a ripple effect that occurs… First and foremost, it is most important that the person having the baby feels capable and ready. And if someone doesn’t feel that way, their parents won’t be grandparents. Sure, this can feel like a blow, but better that than their child does something they might regret.
