This is an interesting nuance. I find most children annoying, and I don’t want any of my own, but the love I have for my niece and nephew is bigger than I ever could have imagined.
There is truth in the saying “you won’t understand until you have your own”. The love I feel for my kids are like nothing else and nothing before it.
With that said, I’d never tell someone they would regret not having kids. As much as I love them, they take ALL my time and then some. It is a very big investment of your time (years) and if you don’t want that, that’s cool.

I guess there’s always room for exceptions.

I hadn’t planned on kids or marriage. I’m so thankful to have both.
