    Child Free

    It is not selfish to choose not to have a child and it is absurd to say that it is. Many of those who choose to remain childless have probably made the decision after much thought, they know themselves and they know what they do and don't want out of life - that is a good thing not a bad or selfish thing. To choose to have a child or not is a very personal decsion and I do not believe that anyone has the right to pass judgment by saying that one choice is selfish and one is not.
