It is a mutual decision of the couple whether they want to have kids or not.<\/h2>\n

You cannot force someone to have or not have kids as long as they want it. Everyone has a right to choose what is right and wrong for them. It is really important to talk to your partner about every important decision of future life before getting married rather than getting married and having issues on little things. A husband took it to Reddit to share how he and his wife never wanted kids and they had discussed it before getting married but after a year or so OP\u2019s wife wanted to have kids. OP dismissed the conversation and told her that he is already co-parenting two dogs and do not want any kids. Now he wants to know if he is right for doing what he did.<\/p>\n

1. This person has something to ask from the Reddit community.<\/h2>\n

2. OP does not want kids and his wife was always aware of it. Before getting married, he was living with his bestfriend and they adopted a dog together.<\/h2>\n

3. OP’s wife’s sister recently gave birth to a baby so OP’s wife brought up the topic of having kids again but OP told her that he is already the co-parent of two babies.<\/h2>\n

4. There can be two reasons why OP’s wife married him:<\/h2>\n

5. OP should sit down with his wife, have a talk and see if it is a deal breaker.<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/h2>\n

6. OP should talk to her wife about what he wants and they should make a mutual decision.<\/h2>\n

7. Ending the conversation is not the solution.<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/h2>\n

Via: puppy_aita \/ reddit<\/a><\/p>\n

Dismissing a conversation is not the right way. It shows that OP is nullifying his wife’s emotions and desires. He should sit and talk to his wife. OP should at least hear why his wife wants to have kids and then tell her his point of view. OP should never go for a vasectomy because you never know when your opinion changes about having kids.<\/p>\n

8. NTA for not wanting to have kids but definitely YTA for not considering what his wife wanted to say.<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/h2>\n

Via: puppy_aita \/ reddit<\/a><\/p>\n

9. OP should have a serious and reasonable talk with his wife that he does not want kids.<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/h2>\n

Via: puppy_aita \/ reddit<\/a><\/p>\n

10. OP and his wife should get on the same page if he wants to save this relationship.<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/h2>\n

11. OP is TAH for handing it in an immature and childish manner.<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/h2>\n

Via: puppy_aita \/ reddit<\/a><\/p>\n

12. If OP does not want kids, he should definitely book a vasectomy.<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/h2>\n

Via: puppy_aita \/ reddit<\/a><\/p>\n

13. OP is dismissing his wife which is disrespectful.<\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/h2>\n

Via: puppy_aita \/ reddit<\/a><\/p>\n

14. OP should have taken his wife seriously.<\/h2>\n

What do you guys think? What should OP do? Should he go for a vasectomy or consider his wife’s wish? Comment down to share your opinion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
