Best part of being childfree

[Mintgum]

Whats the best part of being childfree.
I chose not to have children knew from an early age i never wanted them.
But i have been ask why not whats so good not having them my reply was whats good with having them.
I like my life i like doing what i like i love my freedom.
I have no intrerest in schools finger painting teen dramas i also like sleep.
I dont have the stomach to be around them when they are eating either.
My sister didnt like my reply.
And told me im missing out on what love really feels like.
I replied with.
I'm really not missing out on anything.
You're the one that had kids in your late 40s and all you want is help.
And now im in the doghouse because i was rude.
My family all know dont ask me to baby sit because it won't happen.

Several people have found your input offensive. You seem to be lacking in the self awareness that might tell you why.

It's a shame for it to go when there have been so many interesting posts from MNers without children, and those parents who have posted with a genuine intention to contribute positively to the thread.

Every comment you have made here has been goady. Or just rude. What was your intention today? You woke up and thought hey I wonder if some child free women are having a conversation that doesn't affect me whatsoever, better go and upset or piss them all off for no reason.
Clearly your superior life as a mum isn't leaving you that satisfied if this is how you get your kicks.

Who gives two hoots whether attending or otherwise is "socially acceptable"?

Precisely. I don't give a shit. The mature choice is to stay away from events you're not interested in for whatever reason.

@ilovesooty ive not been offensive! If you think I’ve broken talk guidelines then report the posts and they’ll remove them.

have they?

Its turned in to something else called adults picking at adults because of our choices.

You seem like a fundamentally unhappy person.

I hope you can find some peace in your life, because trying to dim someone else’s candle won’t make yours burn brighter.

There’s a reason Mumsnet had to step in and remind some parents that those of us without children are welcome here and this space was created by them for us.

You have kids?

Yes. And you've been clever enough to goad without specifically breaching the guidelines.

Well this thread is not for you then is it.

Will people just ignore the troll. They like oxygen and attention. Just ignore and she'll go away.

I take it you meant the poster I was taking issue with, not me!

It wasn't off the first page before you were telling people they needed therapy because they shared some of their own personal benefits (not reasons for not having, just benefits) of not having kids with other women without kids.

yes, because a previous poster said ‘why are you on mumsnet if you don’t have a child.’ But that wasn’t me. I’ve not said anything of the sort!

Well, I'd say calling women who are child free not normal, telling them to seek help and have a child and repeatedly suggesting they have a mental health disorder is pretty unpleasant.

Yes sorry ive got a banning migraine.
Comment WAS NOT FOR YOU.

This board is primarily for MNers without children - others are welcome to post but please be respectful

If I can only post if I have don’t have kids then this needs to be changed. I didn’t think specific boards had specific people they allowed or didn’t allow.

No worries! Thought so. Hope you feel better soon.

Do you regret having a child.

What part of please be respectful do you struggle to understand?

well you know I have not said any such things. I’ve told people who don’t want children to ‘have a child?’ Eh?

Do you regret having a child

no, why?

You can post but Mumsnet requests that you please be respectful. You seem to struggle to do this.

Why are you even here on the board? Are you regretting having children and want to reminisce about being child free? Otherwise I genuinely don't get it - I don't join in on the Higher Education boards because it's totally irrelevant to me.
