    If i got pregnant after i finish college, i don't think i'd be too upset and i definitely wouldn't it give up but i would like to wait another few years really

    I definitely want kids, at least 2 hopefully! I would like them now...but I'm halfway through uni soo perhaps not. Obviously it depends on money and whether I'll need to work for a certain amount of years but would love to try for one at around 25

    I'd love them, but not at the moment i can't afford for me to live let alone support someone else. My other half seems to think differently, but he's that much older and more stable.

    That and i'm still enjoying putting me first and i'm not ready to give that up

    No, I don't think being a mother is for me.

    I'm 21 and have never had maternal/broody feelings even once.

    It may change in the future, who knows.

    But for now I'm pretty content on remaining childless

    I think so, only a few though, and certainly not for another 10 years at least.

    Yes I do
    Out of interest, can you give reasons why?

    I don't think I'd ever plan to have a child, but if I was in a stable, happy relationship and I had the means to support a child, and got pregnant unexpectedly, I'd probably have the kid.

    Yes! Not now though, halfway through uni. I've always wanted to be mum, I'm pretty maternal as a person, and think I would be able to handle the responsibility.

    Yes, definitely, as when you strip away all the pretentious rubbish we've been convinced to believe about life, it's very clear that reproduction is the sole purpose of our existence.
