I think it's fine not wanting children, your life is your own and it's terrible how doctors try to interfere with your life. I do think though that when you're still quite young, maybe you should wait to have the tube tying thing. Because I'm sure the case has occurred to some, where they never wanted to have children, then have one "accidentally", and find they did want a child of their own after all. And it's true, your mind does change. How many of you here can honestly look back at yourselves at say 14, 20 odd years of age or whatever, and think that you are the same person that you were then? For me, I don't even know the person I was at that age.

Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.
Fernando Pessoa, 1918
