As someone who's currently struggling with this decision, it's good to hear that you made a choice not to have kids, and don't regret it 14 years on.

I probably have the means to raise a child, but I'm not sure if I want to sacrifice the things I see my friends sacrificing to raise a child well (not to mention the world sucks and all that).

The thing I'm most worried about is regretting my choice either way when I get older (ie having a child and regretting it, or not having a child and regretting that).
