A 24yr old lady identified as Chandler Carter has said that having children is selfish and she does not want to ever have children.
She doesn’t view motherhood as a necessity and feels that having children would limit her ability to enjoy the lifestyle she’s accustomed to.
Instead of raising a family, Chandler prioritizes traveling and having nice dinners, saying that she would rather regret not having children than actually having them
She said: “I want to be child-free. You can be happy. I’d rather regret not having children than having a child and regretting the role of being a mum.
“I don’t fault people for having children but the reasons are selfish. People want to be a better parent than theirs were or because they want a mini me. Having a child is inherently selfish.”
“I’m in my 20s living in New York City. We go out, we have fun. We spend money frivolously. I can go to happy hour after work. I don’t have to cook if I don’t want to. I’m a big foodie, I love to eat out.
“Sometimes I spend a little too much money on dinner and drinks but I don’t feel bad. My cost of living is cheaper – I only provide for me.
“If I were to have children, living in New York wouldn’t be an option. Things in my life would have to change – sacrifices I wouldn’t want to make.”
