What to say to your friend who is being shamed for being childfree
These scripts should serve as a guide for tough, trying, and tremendous life moments.
We’re here to support you in supporting your people. We’re proud of you. And we’ve got you.
Here’s what to say when you don’t know what to say.
First of all: who the hell are these people? On your behalf, they are not allowed to talk to you like that. Listen, love, people have a lot of ideas of what they think is right, usually they need to believe the path they walked is the right and only one to go down. The good news is that's simply not true. And the better news is their judgements are their own problem and none of your business. I am so sorry they confronted you with their ridiculous ideas. Your choices are your own, and I am proud of you for knowing what you want and how you want your life to look. I'm here to vent it out with you, if you'd like. I'm also here to tell you how dope your choices and life are, and how proud of you I am. Like always, let me know if you need to hear how freaking fantastic you are, and I'll show up with a verbal cheerleading section. You're killing it at life.
Text these scripts, email them, leave them as a voicemail, or as the basis of a phone call or conversation in person. These scripts can be used over and over and across all platforms. We hope they help. We want to support you so that you can support your people.
