“We also fetishize children, and people who have them, and you don’t have children. What is the best thing about not having children?” Amy Poehler asked.
“Not being responsible for them. Not having teenagers,” Ina laughed.
“You don’t want somebody who says ‘I hate you’?” Amy jokingly asked. “Crashes the car?”
“No, not so much…are you trying to lease yours out?” Ina continued, laughing.
“There’s all these studies…married people without children are the happiest people…and everyone keeps going, ‘Well, they just haven’t met my children yet,’” Amy noted.
“I mean, it’s amazing to me that I made that decision so young, and that thank God Jeffrey was okay with it,” she said, referring to husband Jeffrey Garten.
“I just can’t imagine my life any other way I’ve done it. I’ve done what I wanted to do. I’ve had just a wonderful time,” she went on to say. Watch her appearance above.
