I don't want kids. ever. can anyone respect that these days?

Katie
I hate kids. I'm 18 and people tell me me all the time "you'll change your mind" "they're different when they're your own" and all sorts of other shit. I have held a baby ONCE in my life and i felt nothing and not to mention i was FORCED to no matter how much i pleaded and i wasn't just going to drop it when they placed him in my lap. But yes i hate kids, i hate being around them. I don't want to be responsible for another being. And why can't anyone understand that? My boyfriend now (which we click so well and i honestly think we will get married one day) says he would like one but wouldn't force me if i didn't want one since it's my decision. i just feel so pressured by everyone already. I hate that i ever mention that i don't want kids. The one thing i do worry about is of course the good ole "who will care for you when you're old" but anyways i'm 18 and i shouldn't be worrying about this and my mind is set, why can't anyone accept that? I just want to grow old with me and my husband and not have to worry about anyone but each other. and btw save a ton of money for traveling :-)
