Honestly, my family is thrilled I don't want to have children. I would be called the black sheep by most but I prefer to think of myself as more the technicolor sheep. My family's views are quite traditional, the fact I think out of the box, in their opinion, makes me bad parenting material. As a case in point, my brothers-in-law don't want me near my nieces by chance I 'corrupt' them in some way.
I am a free spirit and an open thinker, I would want to pass that on to the next generation.
When I was younger and more conformist, I announced my intention to not reproduce and the response was "you'll know better when you're older" or "oh, you'll change your mind when you're older", something along those lines.
