We've been socialized to believe that the traditional "life script" is the ultimate path to happiness. And anyone who doesn't follow it is doomed. Which puts childfree people, especially childfree Latinas y Latinas, at total odds with societal norms.
But who made up those rules? What is behind these supposed ideals? The patriarchy! It dictates our sometimes ridiculous and suffocating social and cultural norms, such as:

  1. Centering and prioritizing only nuclear families with 2 parents and children
  2. The dreaded R-word: REGRET, and if parents express any then they're automatically labeled "bad parents"
  3. The way the media portrays childfree people

How do we fight back? The first step is recognizing we're all on the same team. Childfree people AND parents are all subjects of the patriarchy. Let's stop dividing ourselves into us-vs-them factions, and fight the actual enemy—not each other.
