I have a coworker who doesn’t want kids and neither does his wife. We had people rudely asking him “why”. Really?

I’ll tell you that people ask dumb somewhat offensive questions and make dumb assumptions regardless if you have kids or not. Over the years I was asked many times why I only have one child. Rude. Just rude.

I was asked why I am not a grandmother yet too. That warrants an explanation that my daughter is a widow and her husband died before they were ready to have kids. And who knows if she can even have kids since she has POS.

Recently my best friend (who hasn’t been married and has no kids) were at a party and she was loudly asked by this person who doesn’t even know her “isn’t she feeling lonely and isn’t her life empty and why doesn’t she have kids”. I answered for my friend that there is more to life than having kids and I feel bad for people who don’t have anything else in life besides having kids. I felt offended on
behalf of my friend. Comn people.

I have to have some “smart pants” type of answer.
