It’s common for people to ask married couples when they’ll have a baby. Everybody’s looking forward to meeting the new addition to their family but sometimes, it takes a while before they finally have a child. Considering the personal nature of asking someone when they’re going to have children, and the complications that can be involved, one could argue that it’s in poor taste to even ask such a question.
A couple from Iowa who married three years ago are often bombarded with questions about when they’ll get pregnant. They don’t actually want to have children, but they’ve been reluctant to tell certain family members that, such as Carrie’s grandma, who would be heartbroken about it. Recently, they came up with a different approach – distraction.
Carrie and Nic Jansen tied the knot in 2014 after dating for 8 years.

If you too are sick and tired of answering the same old question about when you’ll have a baby, maybe distracting people from it will work for you.
