In today’s world, more and more couples are deciding to skip the whole parenting thing and embrace a child-free lifestyle. They’re focused on chasing career goals, enjoying their personal freedom, and even considering the impact on the environment. Moving away from the traditional idea of a family, these couples are proving that happiness and fulfilment come in various forms.
However, when it comes to Indian families, couples deciding to remain child-free are met with mixed reactions. While some members of the family respect their decision, others might pressure them into prioritizing parenthood. It’s a mixed bag of curiosity, concern and disappointment. And two questions which easily come up in such discussions are – 1) Who will take care of you in your old age? and 2) Who are you going to pass down your wealth to?
This question was asked on Reddit’s r/AskIndia subreddit and people, who wanted to remain child-free, had a variety of reactions. While some planned on leaving their wealth to siblings, cousins, nieces and nephews, others wanted to give it all to charity to uplift the less privileged – be it underprivileged children or animals.
Have a look at some of the reactions here:

It is incredibly noble of these people to think about donating their wealth to such selfless concerns. This not only transforms lives but also reflects a compassionate commitment to creating a positive and lasting legacy. Don’t you think?
