Brilio.net - Leony Vitria Hartanti or known as Leony Trio Kwek Kwek is a former child singer. At the age of 36, he is still enjoying life even though he is not married. Even though Leony is known to already have a lover named Charles Seaman, Leony herself is still reluctant to get married.
There are quite a few statements about marriage and children from Leony that have made people pros and cons. Leony once stated that he did not want to have children or be childfree. This statement was expressed again in the talk show For Your Morning or abbreviated as FYP which was broadcast last (28/2).
"I don't really have anything to do, until now I don't even want to," said Leony, quoted by brilio.net from the TikTok video clip @in_tainment.

Because of this decision, Leony received a lot of comments. Not a few people fear Leony that her decision not to have children will make her regret it in old age. Leony dismissed these fears, in fact she became even more determined not to want to have children.
"Then there are a lot of people, from the age of 25 onwards, I say that I don't (want to) have children, right? Many people say that the older they get, the more they regret it, you know. The older I get, the more firm I am with my decision," he said.
Leony wants to enjoy her current life by having fun. He explained that he was still selfish and still had many desires. So he doesn't want to add responsibility.
"Because I also feel like I'm still selfish, I still have a lot of desires for this and that. Then I don't want to have any more responsibilities. Now I want to enjoy life and have fun," he explained.
As a friend, Dhea Ananda respects Leony's decision to be childfree . For him, Leony understands best about his own capacity and happiness. The reason is, everyone's standard of happiness is different.

"I just support him, the point is it's his life, his decision. He knows what he really wants, he knows his capacity. And what we have to realize when we are friends, my happiness, his happiness, your happiness, are different "We have our own standards of happiness, we have our own standards of living, and that's a human right," said Dhea Ananda.
It's great to want to be childfree, which doesn't mean that Leony's decision doesn't result in a lot of scorn. So far, Leony has received many lectures via direct message or DM regarding this matter. In fact, he also received messages from many men who were too self-confident and changed their views.
"I stated that I don't want to get married, I don't want to have children, there are a lot of people giving DM lectures like that. Then there are also a lot of men who pretend to be manly, 'Ah, I haven't met you yet, that's for sure'," explained Leony.
When paired, Leony will provide understanding and views about marriage and having children. She did this so that the man who was her partner did not place expectations on her of having children. "So if you want to have children, don't be with me, it's a waste of time," he said firmly.
