There's a big difference between quickly showing someone 2 photos compared to expecting them to sit through 20.

My standard answer is “my panel beater says I shouldn’t be in charge of anything irreplaceable”And apparently "no thank you"-ing an offer to hold the baby is some sort of social faux pas?
Had some friends who bred. "PT, do you want to hold the baby?" "No thanks"
Future ex wife pulls me aside "When someone offers to hold their baby you have to!" "Yeah, nah. No you don't. Not big on children, you know that" "Well stop embarrassing me then!"
Pretty sure I slept on the couch that night. It's OK though, I liked sleeping on the couch. It reminded me of camping. Plus no one would wake me up and tell me to stop snoring.
Yeah, I always remembered how annoying it was hearing about others kids before I had any, so never inflicted on others without them asking. Even then knowing the difference between a polite enquiry (with a 'their fine' response) and real interest in an answer.I've never liked babies. No I don't wanna hold your baby, I don't want cuddle it, Nada nothing leave me alone.
I also don't need to see fifty million photos of your baby.

The problem is that parents don’t really have anything much else to talk aboutYeah, I always remembered how annoying it was hearing about others kids before I had any, so never inflicted on others without them asking.

I’m starting to enjoy the lengths people will go to insert their children into a story, or worse, the extent to which they’ll use their kids.
Was just on a fb group with someone saying their need a free handyman cos their kid is autistic.
Dude, what?
And then you're hungry again in an hour or so.
Mark Zuckerberg would be homeless if everyone had this attitude.I'm always pretty careful what stories I tell people about my kid, particularly to those who don't have kids. It's best limited to funny s**t they say or do, most don't GAF let's be honest.
I don't think it's selfish at all. I think it would be more selfish to have a child who you don't really want.Early 40's now. For the last 20 odd years I have always known in myself that I did not want kids and thankfully have never had them.
Always felt a real awkwardness around babies and never wanted hold them or even be around them much.
The whole idea of parenting never really appealed to me.
Sometimes I feel like it is a bit of a selfish decision but deep down I just know it is not for me and therefore the right decision.
Yeah the whole selfish thing is bizarre and entirely incorrect.I don't think it's selfish at all. I think it would be more selfish to have a child who you don't really want.
I’ve got kids and I have issues with parents as well.It reads to me like the child-less people responding here don't have an issue with kids, they have an issue with parents
You seem like you'd be fun to have a beer withI’ve got kids and I have issues with parents as well.
