That's just what I was thinking. I read an interview that Betty White gave. She said that her first two husbands were very nice men but she was very involved with her career and didn't give enough to her marriages. If she wasn't that interested in her husbands, it's doubtful that she was thinking about motherhood!
And she was over forty when she married Alan Ludden. A lot of women don't want to start families in their forties. I think Marlo Thomas was over forty when she married Phil Donahue. Both men had children and I guess it's enough for some women to be the devoted stepmom.
Betty White has had a long, fantastic career. I admire all the work she has done with animals over the years. I'm sure her life is very full. -

I can totally understand why people don't want kids. Like 10 years ago I had a friend, she had a boy of 3 years. Sometimes I was babysitting him. And not just with me even with her he was very exhausting. Crying and whining nonstop, very hard to please. He needed attention like every second. That would be too exhausting for me 24/7. And I would have better things to do than watching my kids playing pot hitting or egg-and-spoon-race etc.. I like kids and babies are cute but I wouldn't want to care about them and stand the noise and the stress every day.
Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level then beat you with experience.

If she were a man, would you still wonder why he never had kids? Why is it that, if a man has no kids, nobody questions it, but if a woman over a certain 1354age has not produced offspring, everyone wonders what's wrong with her? It takes
men
to make women mothers, so we should either question both sexes, or (preferably) neither. -

because she doesn't have any children or grandchildren and I would think she would be lonely. She is obviously the least lonely person!
People do not need to be married and/or have children/grandchildren to be happy. Her last husband died on June 9, 1981 of stomach cancer. -

It's irrelevant. People who got nothing else push out kids because that's all they got. Breed, breed, breed, like Catholics.
I don't know why ANYONE would want to have kids in the world we have today. The end of the planet is within sight. The Bloated Orange beep Stain is being coronated in a couple of days and it will be the end of the world as we know it. For the rich and famous, no sweat. ..anyway. Having kids is like having a great bowel movement, good for you, but it adds nothing to the world and pulls you down, down, down. Successful and smart people don't breed. -

THIS is the most response-filled post on Betty White's page????
This is a question that would not even likely be found on a male star's page.
I bless her for devoting her passion to her career. A lot of people in life should have done that rather than trying out parenthood for society's sake.
An actress who wants to act, and makes that a priority, is an honest thing.
There's no danger that the world's population will dwindle just because someone knew they weren't interested in being a parent.
