CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

No children here, either...yet. I do want to be a mom someday, but some things have to happen before then...such as marriage!

I would love to have had kids by now but it's up to God if and when I do have any.
It's not unusual when people find out my age for them to ask why and even assume I don't want any because if I did they assume I would have done so by now.

I dont have kids and have no desire to have any now. Neither does my fiancee though I love kids...never had the paternal bug I guess. I have lots of nephews and neices though so I love them as if they were mine...but I get to give them back afterwards.

I don't have children either. Yes the clock is going crazy but it's all in God's time. People are always asking do I have kids and when I say "no," they are like, "why not?' and I'm like, "cause I'm not married yet?" And they are like "girl just go on and have a baby!" And I'm like "umm I really don't think God would be too thrilled about that."
Yeah it gets tiresome.

My husband and I have been married for six years. I'm 31 and he's 40. We've never wanted children. We both like kids, but we've never desired to have children of our own.
So many people ask personal and inappropriate questions. I used to really let it get under my skin, but after a few years, you get over it.
The worst is when someone tries to convince me that I'm eventually going to change my mind.

I can't imagine life without my 2 sons! They're amazing!
But.... I don't think badly of anybody who choses not to have children.

What bothers me is people who don't stop to think before they question why you haven't got children, they don't stop to think that maybe one can't have children. Not every couple hasn't got children by choice.
