To quote Jennifer Aniston's OpEd from HuffPost: "We are complete with or without a mate, with or without a child. We get to decide for ourselves what is beautiful when it comes to our bodies."
I love her OpEd and I do agree. Not all women can/want to have a child. Gone are the days that the essence of a woman is being messured by her ability to be pregnant. A woman with a child can be happy. There are women who have children that are not happy (one reason could be post partum) A woman may choose not to have a child and still be happy. A woman may want a child but was not blessed to have one can find another form of happiness
I used to think that I was already happy and complete without a kid until God blessed me with one. The joys of nurturing a human being is immeasurable.
1:21 are you kidding me? Just had my tubes tied and its the best decision ever! I may not be able to relate to people my age but at least i can do things my way, on a whim!
Guys while agree that a woman can be without a mate or a child—we can’t force everyone do believe that. Cguro Wala naman masamang ibig sbhn ung comment niya, let’s not be to triggered :)
I don’t have a partner and I don’t have kids as well. MAYBE someday I’d love to have a partner to grow old with but certainly not kids. Motherhood is not for me. Never even imagine having kids even when I was younger. Kanya kanya naman yan.
149 Yes for me as well. Motherhood and marriage is not for me. I mean, sometimes I it’s hard to take care of myself, how can I take care of other people?
121 I will agree with you but ang daming na trigger sa comment mo. 😂 Kanya kanyang trip nman yan. Lol, dati hindi ko tlaga maisip na I will have kids or even a husband and I have both! And I am happy and blessed. Kung saan kayo masaya, suportahan taka. 😊
Ako naman I'd rather raise dogs and farm animals 😂 I see my in laws raising 3-4 kids and I can't help but shudder, yung sobrang stressed at parang malolosyang na sila sa pag-aalaga ng bata, I don't think that's for me. Tapos ang gulo pa ng bahay and medyo OC pa naman ako.
im 49 this sept simgle mom with a 22 yr old daughter , the bio dad didnt support my daughter even singkong duling :D , dont have a partner but I am happy, as long as you are happy and contented in life thats what matters
I feel tired answering people who ask me why we don’t have kids. Sometimes I even feel guilty for not wanting to have kids kaya I avoid those type of people na lang. It will not fix our marriage or myself.
Wag naman tayong offended agad..that her own opinion based on what she feels about the post..you are all entitled to your opinion just like the first commenter..lahat na lang ngayon offensive when it doesn't agree with your judgement..respect begets respect..
Agree. The first commenter is referring to the wonderful feeling mothers feel when they see their children. She is not invalidating the happiness of single or married women without children. Baka mali lang yung wording. Wag na po kayo magalit.
Very well said 2:41pm. Many claimed to be happy alone or childless but cannot deny to be very fond din with kids they see either kid/s ng relatives or friends. Kahit nga picture lang makita sa FB, panay naman comment ng "ang cute". How much more pa kaya pag anak mo mismo. Happiness is a choice. Being childless is effortless but having one is an incomparable gift as what the 1st commenter said. Walang yaman sa mundo ang makabili or makapantay sa happiness na dulot ng bata. Kaya nga sa case ni Assunta, ang tawag nya "miracle" baby. Kanya2xng trip sa buhay but ang zero can never be the best over 1 or more.
Respect and consideration go both ways, 2:41. I have a kid and I get where the childfree women are coming from. 2021 na, if they're not going to speak out then our views will remain outdated. Ano, itutuloy lang natin yung nakasanayan nating hindi muna mag-iisip bago kumuda, kung pwede naman itama na para sa bagong generation?
so you still don't get it..that's what your trying to say..ngayon lang at this day & age na lahat ng sasabihin mo ay mandated ng ilang group of people na yung ang ini insist because offensive daw sa kanila ..kaya nga unique ang tao sa hayop because we have our own differences..ano tayo mga robot isang command lang ang susundin.. that's your opinion only it doesn't fit for all of us too okay..don't be close minded..parang pag nagpa essay writing lang ang teacher na kailangan iisa kang ang kailangang sagot ng lahat ng estudyante kasi baka malian lang ng teacher..kagaya mo kuda ka ng kuda agad..think before yoy type..
Meron ba sya sinabi na hindi masaya ang single at childless couple? Sige nga sino ang narrow-minded at offend na offend dyan? Lahat na lang ngayon ng bagay offensive..pati mga artista inaaway sa IG as if kakilala..you should know how to delineate the line..ito.ang negative side ng social media ang daming keyboars warriors..if their opinion doesn't sit well with them inconsiderate ka na..
Dami nagsasabi hapi and contented alone or childless but giliw na giliw naman sa kids kahit picture lang sa FB, panay comment. Magpakatotoo na nga kayo. Kaya nga may mga tawag na miracle baby kc kids are gift from God kaya if incomparable joy ang tawag ng 1st commenter, hindi narrowmindedness un. Tama xa. No money or wealth possession, joys of travelling, career success to her can compare to joy that a kid can offer. Kanya kanyang definition ang happiness. Depende un kung para sa u zero is better than 1, 2 or more.
Nacucutean lang gusto na kaagad magka anak? I’m more than happy to be a babysitter for any of your kids kasi alam ko I can return them so no lol sorry don’t impose your beliefs on us. I’d rather travel and experience life than have crying kids as of the moment.
@12:04pm I like watching documentaries of baby elephants, and I love spoiling my sister's dog, but that doesn't mean I want them in my life 24/7 forever. Hindi ba pwedeng mag-appreciate nang hindi nakakaramdam ng kakulangan sa buhay ko?
12:04 basahin mo ulit sinulat mo kasi u just contradicted yourself. you just said tama si commenter that having a child brings incomparable joy at magpakatotoo ang mga walang kids ... and then you go and say kanya kanyang definition ng happiness ano ba talaga? kaloka ka. ayusin mo muna argumemts mo bago ka umopinion dyan haha
The best part in hanging out with cute kids is returning them back to their parents. Lol. Hindi lahat ng babae gusto mag-alaga ng bata 24/7, especially the free-spirited ones.
Parang may commenter dito na paulit ulit na ipipilit yung side nya..ang dami nya ng reply iisa ang style ng argument..masyadong halatang bitter. Napaka simpleng statement pinalaki na agad..eh di wag kang mag anak kung ayaw mo wala rin namang pumipilit sa iyo..hindi yung pati yung masaya sa buhay idadamay mo pa.
Korek ka 10:14pm. Ang sinabi naman ng nangungunang commenter is incomparable gift of A WOMAN hindi ALL WOMAN na mga ayaw magkaanak becoz of personal reasons or preferences, so be it.
Lol for all I know this post is about anne dahlia and thylane. Ang haba haba na ng arguements about having kids or not. Kanya kanyang trip lang mga mamsh kalma kayo haha
Kids are incomparable joys of a woman and a mother.
ReplyDeleteA woman without kids can be as happy as a woman with kids. Not all women are born to seek motherhood.
Delete1:21 is obviously narrow minded

100%! @1:49
DeleteAmen!I’m 39 with no partner and kids.lol
Delete@245 are u me? Lol
Delete2:35 Yes indeed! A woman without a child can still choose to be happy.
DeleteI used to think that I was already happy and complete without a kid until God blessed me with one. The joys of nurturing a human being is immeasurable.
DeleteOf a woman & a mother. Not necessarily anak. Sino ba di natutuwa sa bata?
DeleteYes 1:49!
Delete1:21 are you kidding me? Just had my tubes tied and its the best decision ever! I may not be able to relate to people my age but at least i can do things my way, on a whim!
DeleteIba pa rin ang hatid na saya ng mga babies, genuine at priceless, what more kung anak natin? Di ba? Sa totoo lang Tayo.
DeleteWala akong makitang problema sa statement na ito. Hindi rin offensive para sa akin. Hindi naman sinabing ALL women and ALL mothers.
DeleteKahit anong sabihin nyo kids are bundles of joy. Wag nyong ilihis ibig sabihin ni 1:21.
DeleteI'm also 39 with no kid/s yet. Yet I am happy, too. I have dogs you know. :)
DeleteA woman building a full on career that's her baby..

Delete149 Yes for me as well. Motherhood and marriage is not for me. I mean, sometimes I it’s hard to take care of myself, how can I take care of other people?
DeleteKesehodang tawagin nila akong matandang dalaga kesa ipilit nila ang buhay na hindi ko naman gusto, ika nga kanya-kanya tayong trip sa buhay.
DeleteWow happy to know na hinde ako nagiisa haha!... medyo tanders na rin ako. No partner and no kids din hehe.
DeleteKayo naman. Masyado niyo naman sineryoso ang sinabi ni 1:21. Wala naman siyang sinabing child/ren lang ang nagpapasaya sa babae.
Delete@1:14 - my thoughts exactly.
Delete29, 8 years married with husband. Childless. Couldn’t be happier!
Delete121 I will agree with you but ang daming na trigger sa comment mo. 😂
DeleteKanya kanyang trip nman yan. Lol, dati hindi ko tlaga maisip na I will have kids or even a husband and I have both! And I am happy and blessed. Kung saan kayo masaya, suportahan taka. 😊
2:35 i love everything you wrote there. thank you.

DeleteI've been waiting for this na magkita ang nag pinsan 🙂

ReplyDeleteAng tipid nga nila magpost e kainis haha.

DeleteTrue! Masyadong mga sensitive.
Delete1129 true! When you have kids parang may na trigger na kung anong something positive at happiness inside you na first time mo pa.lang ma experience.

ReplyDelete1. Nagkita si Anne, Dahlia at Thylanne sa unang pagkakataon.
2. Naglalaro si Dahlia at Thylanne sa hardin.
Ayan wala ng perception kasama yan ha baka may mag react pa kasi.
