We all make different choices in life, and so long as we're not hurting anyone that is all well and good. At the same time, not all of these are worth broadcasting to the world at any available opportunity. Perhaps one of these days, we will get to the point where deciding to be child-free is simply an informed choice instead of a massive controversy, but we have yet to see that happen.

It can make some go a little crazy with the identifying labels, as with a recent Reddit post that has been roasted on Twitter. In it, an individual tries to scope out others who identify as being a NINK or 'No income, no kids'—a play on the DINK (Dual income, no kids) label. It's fair to say that most people wondered what they were trying to achieve with the acronym, and they weren't shy to share that.
