Where is the judgment in having/not having kids?
Re: Why lie about kids?

My only guess is perhaps they have infertility issues and they want to live a pretend life that they might not otherwise have?
Seems like a lot of effort though. I feel sorry for them.
Lol
I don't think there is any rationalization that makes pretend kids understandable. Bit I think someone lied, and no one has fake kids.
Ok as a non-mom, I don't want my view on this dishonesty to be misinterpreted as ME doing it. I'm not one of the kid liars. (Obvs. Unless I have a crazy AE who does have kids...? Hmmmm...
)
ANYWAY, the only way that I can see people lying about it is because there ARE a lot of kid convos, and admittedly 'mom's' opinions are viewed by many as much more valuable than non-moms. So I'm taking it as people's crazy necessity to fit in. Sad but true.
i've never understood making a bunch of stuff up on here, and the smugness that accompanies it. this is a place where you can say anything you like, provided that you create an SN, which requires only an email address. everyone is who they represent themselves to be because there is no fact checking. "tricking" people into thinking you have kids takes approximately 0 effort. it's not like you sweet-talked your way into the e-ring of the pentagon or something. save the smug sense of accomplishment for something else, jackhole.
There is a def separation of church n state on here for a few of my friends.
Respect it!
