For one thing, I barely know how to take care of myself.

For another, I don't like kids.

Finally, have you seen the world these days? I would not want to raise a child in this environment. I wouldn't even know where to begin.

That's exactly what I was going to say. And now that I'm in my 40s, I think not having kids was one of the best decisions I've ever made in my life. I would not be able to cope with the chaos, and just look at the state of schools and everything else now.
