Everything about Childless totally explained
Childless is a term that refers to a person or couple that doesn't have any
children. Childlessness may be the result of:
- a deliberate choice,
- circumstance, or
- infertility or other health problems that would prevent or preclude them from having children.
Childless by choice
Some people are childless by choice, meaning that they've made a
conscious decision not to have children.
Childfree is a term that's coming into use as an alternative, indicating that they don't see the absence of having a child as lacking in any way, as the suffix
-less seems to imply. To accomplish the goal of remaining childfree, they may even undergo
medical sterilization.
Childless by circumstance
Some people are childless by circumstance, meaning that they've not made a conscious choice to never have children, nor is there anything medically preventing them from having children. They may be childless while pursuing a
career or are simply
delaying child-rearing until they're financially stable. They may also be wanting children but are single, or partnered to somebody who is ambivalent or against having children. See http://www.childlessnotbychoice.com
In the United States, lack of childcare, public education, and healthcare add to concerns for the future of many middle class young couples, causing them to give-up on initial plans of having children.
Childless by infertility or other medical condition
Some people are childless, not because of choice or temporary circumstance, but as the result of
infertility or another medical problem, such as a medically-necessary
hysterectomy, which makes it difficult or impossible to have children.
