My Elder brother got married and decided not to have any
children. My mother was jumping up and down for them to have, but
they insist that their plans in life is not to have any kids.
My sister on the other hand, has a kid and she wants another one
soon. The baby has brought in lots of joy into the family. I love
her kid so much if he falls sick, I will be damn worried and will
go over to his place to visit. Buy bears for him, though he does
not need it... Haha.
This is where I am caught...... In our chinese tradition, not
having children is considered as an unfilial act, but in this
modern society, this traditional mindset cannot work. Simple put,
it collapsed under the advancement. We look into enriching
ourselves more, I guess.
Now, my point will be this, are there people out there who will
regret that they do not have any kids when they grow old? If they
do regret, can do they anything to fix things?
I guess there are those who adopt, shower love on their friend's
children or their siblings children or do charity work dedicated to
kids?
