What about a more generic name for those that are childless but not by choice?

i kind of like "childess families" or something like that better... i'm sure there will be some people posting on here who are childless because of IF, and not necessarily by choice...

What about something like the Kid Free Zone? Not everyone chooses to be childfree and I think it's a little insensitive to imply that it was.

I think "Kid Free Zone" is a cute idea.

I'm ok with Childless by Choice but I understand that it's not a choice for some and that may be hurtful.

I'm OK with anything other than "Childless by Choice", since this is not the case for those of us dealing with IF.

I would say Childless by Choice will be hurtful for those who can't have babies or are dealing with IF.

Perhaps "Childfree Zone" or Childfree Families"

The name is fine by me... I assume the purpose of this board is for couples who choose not to have children. I assume the IF board is for those struggling with IF issues...

However, if it's meant for all childless couples, then I could see changing the name.

The IF board is for those who are currently struggling with IF. When the IF journey comes to an end without success these couples are childless, not by choice. They still need a place to go other than the IF board.
