I don't want to have kids. I'm tired of hearing "You'll change your mind when you're older".

I'm 18 years old. I'm an adult. I know what I want in life and kids are not something I want. I've thought about the idea of having children for years, ever since I was little. I've watched a lot of videos, read articles and had countless conversations with people about it. I know what I want. I don't want to be a mother. I hate the idea of being a mother. I want to travel the world. I want to see and do so many things. I do not want to have children. I don't want to spend 9 months of my life stuck in my bed and constantly vomiting. I don't want to go through the pain of childbirth. I don't want to deal with babies crying and screaming all the time. I don't want to change dirty diapers and clean up after kids all the time. I don't want to spend my entire adult life raising children. I don't want to have to worry about supporting a child. I don't want to have to deal with the world becoming a trash hole when my kids grow up. I don't want to deal with kids when they're being stubborn and won't listen to a word you say. I don't want to have to give up my hobbies and interests to spend time with my kids instead of doing what I want to do. I don't want to have to give up my freedom. I don't want to have kids. <br><br>This is my decision, it's what I want and I know it's what I want. This is what I've always wanted since I was a little girl. I don't want to be a mother and there's nothing anyone can say or do that will make me change my mind. I know exactly what I want in life and I won't let anyone convince me otherwise.<br><br>But whenever I express my desire to not have kids, everyone tells me "You'll change your mind when you're older". No, I won't. I wanted to be a mother when I was a little girl and when I was in middle school. Now that I'm older, I don't want to be a mother. When I'm even older, I still won't want to be a mother. I hate the idea of being a mother. I hate the idea of having kids. I hate the idea of raising children and giving up my freedom to do it. I hate the idea of dealing with kids when they're young. I hate the idea of having to support a child for the next 18 years of my life. I hate the idea of having to give up so much just to raise a kid. I want to travel the world. I want to see and do so many things. I want to spend my life doing what I want to do, not raising kids. I don't want to be a mother and nothing will change that.
