Ever made the social faux pas of asking a couple when are they having kids or why they haven't gotten down to starting a family just yet? Emily Bingham has the perfect explanation as to why you shouldn't even begin to entertain that question in your head.

Her post is getting a ton of attention on Facebook now.

On September 20, she uploaded a photo of an ultrasound to Facebook. She then attached a message regarding the many questions women face about reproduction.

It reads:

Hey everyone!!! Now that I got your attention with this RANDOM ULTRASOUND PHOTO I grabbed from a Google image search, this is just a friendly P.S.A. that people’s reproductive and procreative plans and decisions are none of your business. NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS.

Before you ask the young married couple that has been together for seemingly forever when they are finally gonna start a family … before you ask the parents of an only-child toddler when a Little Brother or Little Sister will be in the works … before you ask a single 30-something if/when s/he plans on having children because, you know, clock’s ticking … just stop. Please stop.

You don’t know who is struggling with infertility or grieving a miscarriage or dealing with health issues. You don’t know who is having relationship problems or is under a lot of stress or the timing just isn’t right. You don’t know who is on the fence about having kids or having more kids. You don’t know who has decided it’s not for them right now, or not for them ever. You don’t know how your seemingly innocent question might cause someone grief, pain, stress or frustration.

Sure, for some people those questions may not cause any fraught feelings — but I can tell you, from my own experiences and hearing about many friends’ experiences — it more than likely does.

Basically it's this: NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS. The post has gone viral and has been shared over 50,000 times already. Here are some of the positive responses:

Bingham has said that she herself faces a lot of questions regarding her plans to procreate.

“People expect me to be a mom already and when they find out that I have never been married and I don’t have children, then the next question is, ‘Well, do you want to?’” Bingham said.

So the next time you see someone who doesn't have kids, and if you feel like asking that question, here's what you do: shut up.
