Yeah. Year ago I decided to take my money (over $800 including all checkups and gas) and make myself childfree.

Did doctor asked me am I sure? Yes Do I regret it? Hell no!

I had an internal giggle when I saw smoke coming from where my balls are (since procedure was painless)

Sometimes people tell me it wasn't smart, but they have kids so I ignore them.

I really hate the thought of having children :)

The whole "25 y/o brain fully developed" thing is not something you should be putting much weight in, for what it's worth. https://slate.com/technology/2022/11/brain-development-25-year-old-mature-myth.html

Honestly I don't think I was there until my 30s

I think you might be missing the point of the article. I didn’t use a specific number because people are all different and develop differently. It’s generally around the mid to late 20s that most humans brains are fully developed.
