When I was 20 I often said I was never going to have a baby and I was never going to change my mind.

That was almost 30 years ago and I'm menopausal now. Guess what? I never did have a baby and I never did change my mind. I'm really glad I never gave into the pressure (and oh yes, there IS pressure) to have a child, because I know it would have made me (and the child) miserable.

If you think it's not mock-worthy when a 20-year-old woman says "I want to have kids someday" and yet you DO think it's laughable when she says, "I don't want to have kids," I think you should take a good long look at why you think that. Yes, women often do change their minds - in both directions. Sometimes women who want kids when they're young change their minds about that too! Either way it's still a dick move to laugh at a young woman's statements about what she does and does not want for herself. Even if she does change her mind, it's still a valid statement at the time that she says it and believes it.

Excellent point and very well put.

At twenty, one of my most cherished life goals was to be as good a mother someday as my mother was to me.

Now, at 29, I'm coming to terms with the fact that I might not want children after all. Maybe if my life circumstances change, I'll go back to wanting kids. But yeah, the "20 year olds don't always know" goes both ways.
