A woman wants people to accept her decision not to have children – because she likes her current lifestyle.
By saying that she would rather sleep well and spend more money on herself, the woman wants to stop the pressure that society puts on women.

On her TikTok channel, Evi says she is “voluntarily childless”.
Under the domain @childfreemillennial she writes: “Society: You will regret not having children”, “I: sleep in.”
Add: “Coffee in bed”, “FEW worries”, “Married = double income” and “Reduced carbon footprint”.
The post was viewed over 287,000 times and received a lot of comments, some of which the woman disagreed with.
“When I’m on my deathbed, I want to be surrounded by my children and grandchildren,” said one person.
“I respect your decision, but you are missing out on life. I didn’t want any children myself. Now I have 3 and I don’t want them ever to move out,” added another.
“Great! Enjoy your cat’s karen,” said a third.
Others, however, agreed that the woman has a choice and shouldn’t feel like having children if she doesn’t want them.
“Yes you do! Also note that society never tells men that they will regret it?” commented one person.
Another said, “I don’t know why people get so upset that people enjoy not having children. Let people live.”
“As a mother, you do what makes you happy. If someone doesn’t want children, they shouldn’t have them,” commented a third party.
In another post, the woman explained what kind of comments she gets on a daily basis.
“You’re selfish because you don’t want children,” she quotes in response with “both are a need, you want them, I don’t want them,” she said.
The post received over 632,000 views and many TikTok users were quick to comment.
“Why is that. A lot of people don’t have children. Go,” commented one person.
Another said, “Besides, nobody talks about how selfish it would be for me to have one if I don’t want one.”
“I’m a mother. I love my children, but motherhood is not for everyone and that’s fine,” commented a third.
