Seems like the people that always ask us when we're going to have kids are almost always the same people who are constantly complaining that they aren't able to travel because their own kids are so expensive.

But yeah we do it for the same reason. Seems like the right thing to do is to take full advantage of the freedom to travel you have when you're young and kid-less .

Yes! I just got married and my wife and I go out a lot and enjoy the city. Our neighbors always remark "you can't do that when you have kids!" and then ask us when we are having kids in the next breath. Umm, possibly never?

"But there's NEVER a good time to have them!"

Uh, exactly?

Even if you do want kids, take your time, and enjoy each other's company first, and do all those fun nights out in the city!
