When you were younger, what excited you most about your future?
*
Becoming a parent and raising the next generation
Building a deep, lasting partnership with someone special
Achieving professional goals/status
Would you take action to become a parent on your own? (think: surrogacy, adoption, fostering)
*
Absolutely
No way
Meh, maybe but I doubt it
When you spend time with others, where do you instinctively find yourself?
*
Deep in conversation, sharing thoughts, dreams, and emotional moments together
Taking care of practical needs like managing the meals, organizing, or making sure everyone is comfortable
A little bit of this and a little bit of that - no pressure situations are my fav
Do you think couples should stay together if they’re only doing it “for the kids”?
*
No, they should honor their own happiness and support the kids along the way
Yes, i understand the sacrifice and would probably make it, too
In your adolescence, did you take an active interest in kids? (think: babysitting, big brother/sister mentoring, coaching) (copy)
*
Hard pass
Yes, totally!
Which statement is most true about your “social battery” level?
*
As long as I’m with the people I care about, I rarely need alone time to recharge
I prefer to be around other people - it’s like my battery gets recharged
Being around people takes a lot of energy - I typically recharge solo
How likely are you to do things for others that you don’t want to do?
*
Somewhat likely - I might feel burdened by it but wouldn’t cancel on them
Very likely - I enjoy helping others and typically offer before I’m asked
Unlikely - I’d either not commit in the first place or find a way to get out of it
If you went your whole life without having children, how do you think you’d feel?
*
Relieved! Crisis successfully averted
A little bummed, like I missed out on something big, but I’d still feel good and everything else I got to do
Deeply unsettled, like something really important was missing the whole time
Mostly fine - I’d feel like my life was full of amazing moments and connections, with or without kids
If you had to choose one, which would you rather have?
*
A mostly happy relationship without children
A mostly unhappy relationship while parenting children I adore
Which aligns with you more?
*
I would be more ok without kids as long as I found a solid partner
I would be more ok without a partner as long as I became a parent
