10 things you may want to avoid saying to couples with no child yet
No matter if you're engaged, married, or simply in a long-term partnership,
there comes a time when it seems like
everyone wants to know extremely
personal details about your relationship.
And that period of time
when
you're quite serious with your sweetheart but not yet parents seems to
trigger seriously wacky, sometimes thoroughly clueless remarks and inquiries.
Whether you're an uber-curious future grandparent or simply the BFF of DINKs
(AKA Dual Income, No Kids), here are
10 things you may want to
avoid saying to your favorite child-free couple.
1. "Have you started trying yet?"
2. "You're so lucky you get to sleep in/travel/spend your money on
irresponsible things!"
3. "You'll see when
you have kids!"
4. "Oh wow, you must've partied HARD last night, right?! Gosh, I miss
those days!"
5. "Being around kids must be like birth control for you!"
6. "Yeah, definitely have sex/enjoy your marriage now, because after kids,
nothing is the same!"
7. "You think you're tired
now? Just wait 'til you have
kids!"
8. "You're so lucky it's just you two!"
9. "You just don't understand what love is until you have kids!"
10. "So. When ARE you finally gonna have kids??"
Have you heard or said any of these?
