"Does that mean you'd love to have more than one kid, or would you like to have a child who had the same sort of experience as you (as an only child)?"
"I actually don't really want to have kids."
"I love the fantasy of having a child, like naming it sounds so fun, but like that is exactly a sign to me as to why I should not have one, the fact that that feels like the coolest part about it and like, maybe I'm not ready, you know?"
"All that could change, especially if she found the right partner. So you might find somebody,"
Jason Bateman repeatedly pressed Charli XCX about her decision not to have children during a SmartLess podcast appearance. Charli stated that she does not really want to have kids and explained that enjoying the fantasy of naming a child signals she may not be ready. Co-hosts Sean Hayes and Will Arnett reacted with surprise, with Hayes initially questioning the reason and later conceding it was not his business. Bateman, father of two, referenced his wife's earlier reluctance and suggested meeting the right partner could change her mind. Bateman subsequently faced criticism for the persistent questioning and apparent lack of preparation.
