then don't? Who says you

then don't? Who says you must make babies? If 19 is young enough for me to know that I want babies, by the truck load jk, then why can't you know that you don't want to pop out spawn? :] You're still normal.

Grow tall sugarcane, eat that soil, drink the rain. But know that they'll chase you if you play their little games. So run, run fast, sugarcane.

No. Hell, I decided I never

No.

Hell, I decided I never wanted any babies when I was in elementary school, and I'm even younger than you right now. I highly doubt it changes, tbh. I'm just not good with babies; never have been.

A lot of girls I know talk about their "dream" futures, and most include babies. If a 15-year-old can decide they want some when they get older, why can't a 19 year old decide they don't?

I totally understand what

I totally understand what you mean. I'm 17, and I'm already pretty sure that I don't want to have kids. I also like kids, but I just don't think I could have kids of my own. ... So, I think it's definitely okay to come to that realization. :)

I get you, but in kind of a different direction. I really really want to have kids, but I don't want to pop them out myself. And I'm only 16, so...yeah.

Like all long term

Like all long term decisions, this one requires a decent amount of contemplation. Fortunately, for your sake, which ever decision you do arrive at, it's completely reversible. At least, I would assume it to be, considering the fact that having a hysterectomy or an oophorectomy would be a little extreme just to avoid having a kid via natural means.

But inn any case, you're pretty safe with what ever decision your arrive at.
