Childfree in Arab societies

For those of you who are childfree, how do you deal with the society around you?

I feel like people here can be incredibly intrusive and judgmental when it comes to marriage and having children. There’s always someone asking when you’re getting married, when you’re having kids, why you don’t want them, etc.

How do you guys handle the pressure and all the annoying comments, especially from family and relatives? Do you just ignore it, set boundaries, or have you found a way to make people stop commenting?
