Well then be blunt. Tell your family to kiss off, and don't have a kid. If they want a baby so bad, tell THEM to have it. One of my pet peeves is people pressuring others to have children. Children are not a requirement for a happy lifestyle. I know many childfree people who are quite happy with their situation, and who have a hell of a lot more freedom than those of us with kid(s).

And if you're not keen on the idea of being a parent then for chrissake don't have a kid. You'll be miserable, and the kid will be cheated.

And btw, contrary to the popular argument I hear people use when trying to convince someone not to have a kid, it is NOT selfish to not want one.
