About this listen
Why is it easier to find a dozen books on pottery glazing than a single, clear-eyed take on the life-altering choice to stay childfree? In ‘Why You Should Never Ever Have Children’, DJ Dean fills this glaring void with unapologetic gusto, exposing the apocalyptic downsides of parenthood society barely whispers about. Forget the rosy clichés of bedtime cuddles and Christmas mornings—this book unveils the brutal reality: financial ruin, barely remembered hobbies, declining health, and the relentless grind kids bring, with no escape once you’re in.
With razor-sharp wit and unflinching honesty, Dean doesn’t just defend the childfree life—he makes it irresistible. ‘Why You Should Never Ever Have Kids’ flips a defiant middle finger at the pro-parenthood propaganda flooding our culture, arguing for a childfree existence that’s richer, freer, and downright more fun. From amassing wealth and reclaiming time to supercharging your social life and personal growth, this isn’t just a case for opting out—it’s a blueprint for thriving. Drawing from personal triumphs over a life of obligation, Dean proves that saying “no” to kids can mean saying “yes” to everything else.
Perfect for the staunchly childfree or curious fence-sitters, this book is a provocative wake-up call. Prepare to be shocked, inspired, and maybe even liberated—because the most transformative decision of your life deserves far more than the scant options currently on offer.
“…a must-have for anyone considering a child-free lifestyle or pondering the implications of parenthood” – 5/5 Luwi Nyakansaila, Readers’ Favorite
“The writing is sharp, funny, and biting in the best way. I laughed out loud more than a few times, mostly because the author says what many are too scared to admit. The chapter on finances hit me hardest. His personal anecdotes bring real weight… It’s one thing to drop stats; it’s another to drop the mic on your actual life.
What really surprised me was how emotionally charged the book is beneath all the snark. Sure, he’s railing against parenthood, but there’s something deeper here, freedom, identity, the power to choose your own damn life without apology. When he walks through his daily routine, early coffee, gym, writing, lunch at the pub, you almost want to cry out of envy. It’s not just that parenthood is hard. It’s that choosing not to be a parent opens doors that most people didn’t even know existed… if you’re even slightly on the fence about having kids or just curious about life on the other side, it’s absolutely worth the ride” – (Gold Medal Award Winner) Karen Almeida Literary Titan
“For any prospective parents teetering on the edge of life’s biggest decision, Dean unleashes a methodical and persuasive argument that having a child could actually be a long-term mistake, hilariously balancing the scales of social norms with an unvarnished but well-researched analysis of this contentious issue” – editor, spr
“…a bold, honest take on what parenting is really like. DJ Dean’s writing is direct, funny, and completely unapologetic, which made me rethink a lot of things I had always just accepted as true. Even though the topic is serious, the humor keeps it engaging, and the arguments are laid out in a way that makes total sense without ever feeling pushy. There’s solid research behind everything, so it doesn’t just feel like personal opinion when it’s backed up with facts. Overall, Why You Should Never Have Children is an eye-opening and important read for anyone thinking about what they really want in life, and I would definitely recommend it.” – 5/5 K.C. Finn, RF
“This book is an excellent read for anyone on the fence about having children. It challenges societal expectations and encourages readers to make their decision based on their own values, motivations, and priorities.” – The International review of Books (Gold Badge)
