I don't know why some people think it's "selfish" not to want children. If you don't want children, you should definitely not have them. Having kids is an extraordinary responsibility, even if it's something you really wanted and even if you have well behaved children.
I never considered adopting children and birthed my own biological children - which in a way can be considered very narcissistic and "selfish" when you think about all the un-adopted children in the world who desperately need parents.
