“Why don’t you have children?”

What people hear: “You’re selfish for not wanting kids”. This is the pariah of all questions! Couples may be childless by choice, face infertility or relationship issues. It’s not your job to question or judge them on their choices.

This is a truly uncomfortable question, and it can only remind someone how they didn’t live up to society’s expectations or to their own. If you’re really that interested in their private life, try asking the right questions, listen to what they want to share about their lives(if they want to share), and don’t be intrusive. Being intrusive won’t get you anywhere.

  1. I’ve had all those things said to me. That’s all the liberal woke anti-white left who cheated on this past election have in their vocabulary

  2. Yes, in the past I’ve been insensitive but have gotten much better; more sensitive, as I’ve gotten older and I am and reaching the end of my natural life. I didn’t find all 11 things but will try to not insult and/or hurt other people.

  3. These are terrible and I would never say any of them to a friend or to someone! Maybe some people would, and I have been asked how much money do I make and how much I am worth. My response is not enough!

  4. Sharon L. Decent

    This was the funniest comeback I’ve ever heard. My friend was contemplating buying a Christmas sweater and was holding it out in front of her. Another customer grabbed it out of her hands, saying “this will look better on me.” My quick witted friend replied, “only if you lose 10 pounds.” This is just meant to give you a chuckle.

  5. Yes, I’ve had this said to me; especially if I’ve stood up for those of other races; poverty-stricken and etc.

  6. I’ve asked people this but they’re usually of an age to do that and. I don’t remember asking young people except in cases re ability to retire if it comes up. I hope I’ve never insulted anyone w/this question, but the topic is widespread for workers especially if they hate their jobs.

  7. I don’t recall this conversation. If someone is a clerk saying they want to be an attorney; I think I’ve said nothing but have met clerks who passed the entrance exam for law school. Because I’ve suffered so much attempting to improve myself educationally; hoping for a better career but been denigrated, I’ve tried to be sensitive about what I say.

  8. It depends on the context it’s in. It’s all right to say that; for instance, if your boss or even other employees you’re assigned something give you an easy assignment and you; all of you, say it should be easy.
