I come here to seek advice. I have been married for just over 2 years. I am now at a stage where I am ready to have children. Problem is, my husband completely shuts me down saying we will never have kids. I am deeply heart broken. My family has also talked to him and explained that in grist jeevan, having kids is also important.

I just don't know what to do. I just feel like crying. I wish it mattered to him to see how much this is killing me on the inside.

I know there isn't much anyone can say to help but I just felt like posting to get some comfort cause I feel so alone on the inside :(

Do you know the reason or did he tell you why "no kids" ?

There could be a number of reasons

1. Financial

2. Don't want additional responsibility

3. Loss of freedom

etc

So unless you know and tell what Exactly is his problem, it would be Unwise to give any suggestion.

With Guru Sahibs Kirpa we have never actually struggled financially we be did want to ensure we we had enough saved up. That was done as we were both promoted in our careers. He never takes on any responsibilities and constantly states "I just want to chill". He tried convincing me that raising kids is a burden and too many responsibilities.

Don't you think the questions like "ideally where do you see yourself, your spouse and your family in the next 2, 5, 10 years etc." should have been asked BEFORE you went into marriage with this person? :huh2:

Don't worry have faith in Almighty, will ONLY recommend that you do Sukhmani Sahib Paath on daily basis, take season fruits as offering to the Gurudwara and wash dirty dishes in Langar.

Speaking from a guys POV, maybe if he's so against the idea of LOTS of kids, you could try convincing him that you only want one? Try not to floor him immediately and just take it easy? I'm not sure about his desire for chilling, but raising ONE child and all the associated costs (financially and otherwise) are so much higher in the kind of world we live in today. Although you say you're flying in your respective careers so I don't think money is an issue.

Sounds like a typical guy really. I don't think you've got much to worry about. If he's still relatively young (under-30) I can understand his desire to chill. If he's saying kids are TOTALLY off the table forever, then you're in a bit of a pickle. I don't know why he'd be so against bacheh.

Penji , first try to know why he does not want to have a child ?

Is he afraid to have a baby girl ?

Is he only interested in having a baby boy ?

Do you both have a bad chemistry between both of you ?

I am only 21 yr old but mature enough to understand where u are coming from ..

Try talking to him . After all , he's your husband ...

And mine is the case that I was born when my dad was 40 yr old or something ... and now he's grown 60 and I am still not self-dependent ... not a job , not completed my studies yet ..

So , my point is that he can still enjoy his life with wife and baby ... But , if you guyz get too late to have a kid , then you may grow older before your kid is settled well ... foreseeing is important here !

Talk to him. Get ur parents and his parents to sit and talk with him. Im sure bothe parents want grandchildren and want the generation to carry on.

My friend had something goin on lyk this. But the girl didnt want kids. <edited>

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
