Are People Happier Without Kids?

The Childfree Connection

Are parents happier than those without children? If you had asked either of us in our 20s and 30s, we likely would have answered yes. I can still hear the refrain in my head: "You'll never be truly happy until you become a mom." This concept was so deeply ingrained in my mind that the possibility of it not being true didn't even occur to me. I simply assumed that my lack of desire meant I would never experience true happiness.

In this episode, I share the results of some recent research studies which answer this question and of course, we share our own thoughts on happiness and living a childfree life. I also report on Rick’s latest stunt that resulted in a broken TV set and how he (annoyingly) won our 24 Hour contest.

We can’t wait to hear your thoughts on how you frame happiness as a childfree person! And, don’t forget, if your community of friends are all having kids and you’re feeling left out, there’s a whole community of childfree people you can instantly relate to. 🧡Join our membership community here! https://www.thechildfreeconnection.com/
