People that I encounter try to make me feel bad because I don't have kids. This usually come from people who had kids too early or wasn't prepared. The like to make comments that can I do things because I don't have kids or I can spend money because I don't have kids. Or, I don't understand because I don't have kids. Do this ever happen to you?

I used to go through the same thing back in the day. I am 33 now and I did not have kids until 29 and everyone would be like you better hurry up you don't want to be so old with young kids. But now I waited got married and it's all good. Unlike them who are talking about going out and partying because they missed it I am very content right now.

Yeah, I'm 26 and my fiancé 29 and people keep telling us that we need to have kids before we get OLD! I believe that they think that we can't have kids. I don't pay them any mind because I know I'm not ready for kids. I am not financial able to take care of a kid at the moment. I know you are really enjoying your babies now. I think it will be well worth the wait because then I can enjoy every moment.
