It is a different thing. When you invest money in goods, you're investing in a mainly reliable product that can always be replaced. When you invest money in a child, they might just end up stabbing you in the back. There's nothing productive about it.
You have been watching too many Dominick Dunn reruns...not every child will end up like the Menendez brothers or Brook Astors son!

Seriously, you must have been dropped on the head as a child.
I knew the anti-childfree people would find this thread sooner or later. OK, we get it: you have kids, you love your children to pieces, you can't imagine why other people wouldn't want kids of their own. That's OK. We need people like you in the world, otherwise we'd go extinct pretty quickly.
However, there are people who, for whatever reason, don't share that same desire. There's nothing wrong with that, and you should respect their decisions.

I am thrilled people who do not want children or do not like them choose not to have them...it is the best thing for all involved.
BTW, this is an open forum so everyone is welcome to post
Also, to everyone who posted in this thread: thanks. It's really encouraging to know I'm not alone on this whole not wanting kids thing. I'm amazed that there are over a hundred replies in less than 24 hours.
