You don't have to apologize to parents for not wanting kids. Just because I have kids does not mean I feel that everybody in the whole world should have them too!. Different strokes for different folks. I like Fall Out Boy and I don't expect the whole world to like them. I like the colour orange and I don't expect the whole world to like it as much as I do, so I don't expect everybody to have kids either.
I cannot imagine much worse than a child being born into a family that didn't want them...but had them because they felt they had to.
And the part about a child defining a woman...why do people feel Moms feel that way?????? My kids are part of my life and a huge part of my life, but they are not all that I am. Emma once referred to her bedtime as "when Mommy and Daddy stop being Mommy and Daddy and start being Susan and Kevin!" If Emma can grasp it at 3...I really think more people should be able to get it!
