Hey, Dolly Parton pins her decades-long happy marriage and successful career on choosing not to pro-create.

Really? Doesn't mention the massive bazingas? That didn't help them through a rough patch or two?

Seriously though, kids are a massive strain. I would love to be married sans brats with someone who is as passionate as I am about anything. Success would be a prerequisite.

My husband is also adamantly child-free. He isn't quite as militant about it, but we both agree that marriage kicks ass when you can spend time with each other doing cool grown-up things instead of 1) being broke from raising kids 2) going somewhere lame and kid-centric because it's a famblee event, or 3) finding/ponying up for a babysitter. CF 4 lyf.

I always felt sorry for that rabbit. You'd think just once they'd let him have a bowl of Trix. Poor guy :(
