I don't know if it helps, but you get ambivalence either way. I am currently ambivalent about -- as seems very likely now -- never having children. The opportunity never arose; it seems unlikely to arise in the near future; and I was never sure if I wanted children anyway. My main source of regret is that my parents would make amazing grandparents, and since I'm an only child, the fact that I'm not reproducing also deprives them of that chance.
