In the last bit of your article, I feel like you're justifying your choice by saying "maybe I was not born strong enough to do it" and "I sometimes feel like I took the easy road on this one." Up until this point you sounded really confident and strong in your stance. You should own it through to the end! While being a mother is a lot of work (I am not one yet, but I am close with some), not wanting to have kids doesn't speak to your strength as a person! You are not less strong than a woman who decides to have children. And there are other challenges and obstacles to overcome in life other than raising kids, so not having them is not necessarily an easier road. It's a great article and it's refreshing to hear more women confidently state that they do not want to have kids, no matter what their reason. Thank you.
