Breeding bribes

According to Macleans.ca, Canada is in the midst of a baby crisis. Economists and demographers are claiming that Canada’s birthrate is drastically falling at a rate that is detrimental (if you believe the bullsh*t this article is claiming) to the country. The government is now toying with the idea of -wait for it- [...]

Birth control peeves

It just blows my mind what insurance companies will cover and what they won’t. They won’t pay for my birth control or to have a tubal ligation or the new procedure Essure (more on this later). HOWEVER, they will pay through the nose for fertility treatments to whoever needs/wants them (yes, they’re covered-atleast [...]

A harsh truth indeed…but truth nonetheless.

This video was posted on one of the childfree groups I belong too. Well done, and so true.

When will people realize that the earth just wasn’t meant for billions and billions of people?

And who died and made you (fill in blank)?

A while back, I was reading on one random blog where the blogger apparently felt that those who are childfree do not have the RIGHT to not like children. Umm…excuse me? The last time I checked, I was free to like or dislike whoever the hell I pleased. I have NEVER liked [...]

Mother’s Day

I’m not writing to bash a holiday that is obviously for those that have kids (I’ll do that next year ). I have had several people today tell me “I hope you have a wonderful Mother’s Day. It’s your special day.” Um…I’m not a mom and never will be (yay!).  [...]

Save the environment. Don’t have kids.

Here is one more reason for not having children that the childfree can tell those constantly pestering them to breed. According to one Australian paper, children are just plain bad for the environment. How can the childfree be called “selfish” when our simple act of not having children can make a huge different [...]

Wow…just wow.

I came across this video posted on a childfree group I belong to. I am obviously not the only one that was rather disturbed by this. However, I think, for once, that this might be something both childfree advocates and the majority of parents can agree on. It’s just not right. [...]

“You’ll change your mind.”

Aargh! The bain of every CF’s existence are these four “little” words. I can not tell you how many times I have heard this, and I’m sure I’ll hear it plenty of times again. Why is it so hard for people to fathom that I just do not want to have kids…EVER. [...]

Childfree High Tech

Christine Fisher started the Adult Space Childfree Podcast in March 2006 to reach out to this growing community. Fisher, known as “The Fixed Kitty” to her listeners, says she’s known since the third grade that she didn’t want to be a mother.

The Childfree

In a world that caters to families and children, it is nice to know that there are a few out there that have decided to forgo the parenting life and become childfree. We have chosen to stand up for our own lives and not make such a decision based on what society says is “normal” [...]
