Ah man....yes, and some people really get upset when you tell them your reasons....ours are quite simple:
- I dont like kids to begin with
- *Kids are expensive and I am sure I can enjoy the fruits of my 8 hours of hell (work) a day better than giving some of it to some unappreciative little brat. The government already takes enough.
- Sleep is good
- Gaming without interruption is good
- I detest rugby and similar sports. My kid wont get support from me.
- I am married so the basic math indicates I will not grow old alone. Should I lose my wife through natural causes or divorce, I will be alone yes. At least I will be able to afford to be alone where-ever I want. (see * above) On that topic my mom's widowed mother lives in Cape Town. My mom lives in Pretoria. So regardless life in most cases will not afford your kids the opportunity to look after you.

All and all I just actually want to tell these people F.U!!!! with a load of other obscenities. If you want/do have kids, awesome for you!!!! really....but leave me the hell alone.
