I definately don't think it's wrong to not have children. There can be many good motivations, from feeling one would make inadequate parent material to wanting to devote more time to a certain very demanding ministry.
I do think *sometimes* though, with some couples, not having children is symptomatic of a misplaced emphasis in the relationship. A particular example springs to my mind, where the couple is so obsessed with each other and themselves they couldn't face having children come between them. It's not a matter of their childlessness being wrong in itself, just a matter of the chidlessness being a symptom of something else going wrong...
