Dear Mimi- I Don't Want To Be A Mother by MimiKnows: 11:03pm On Aug 28, 2016
I am a 36 years old woman married to a 29 years old man.

We have been married for two years. Before we got married, I told my husband I did not want to have any children as I had a bad childhood and do not want to have any children because the world is such an evil place. He agreed and even said he was not interested in children either.

Recently his family have been agitating for a child and now my husband is saying he would like us to have at least one child. I love my husband but I am very sure I do not want to be a mother.

What should I do?

–Don’t want to be a mother

No problem, as long as you do not fight his baby mama, no body will care.

She shouldn't have married him in the first place. One would be hard pressed to find a man that young who'll agree to such terms without an underlying motive.

Sounds like he married her for papers hence him "agreeing" not to have kids. Well, since the agreement on which their union was established is about to be broken, they'd best part ways.

I get that she probably just wants a companion and not kids (perfectly understandable as lots of couples don't want children), so next time when contemplating marriage, she should go for a divorcee or widower whose already had kids - preferably grown up ones - and don't want anymore.

 Then, you shouldn't have gotten married. It's no longer your life; your choices. 
You have to consider your husband now.

Men are fickle but if you are a Nigerian,
you should know that family pressure no go gree una stay without children.

Except you travel out and be far away from family pressure.
