I’ll start. I’m a 37-year-old woman, and I’ve always been indifferent about having children. I love peace and quiet, but at the same time, I wouldn’t mind having kids if my partner really wanted them.

I’ve been with my husband for 13 years now and married for 11. I’m his second (and final) wife. He has three kids with his first wife. She was supportive of him taking a second wife, with just one request: no more children. That solidified my decision not to have kids.

    No. Because:

    I wouldn’t sign someone up for adopt-a-highway without informing them, as that would be unethical. So why would I sign someone up for a responsibility ten thousand times greater without being able to ask first?
