    This topic is so played out.

    Enough already. There is nothing interesting left to say on this subject. My husband and I have an amazing relationship and most of our family and friends have accepted our decision to not have kids.

Its all about tolerance – I accept other peoples’ choice to have children and more often than not people accept our outlook on kids. And believe it or not, it is possible to have a social network with other child-less adult couples.
