I regret having kids

Special needs was always my biggest fear and the reason why I never went for one more child, even though I wanted another. I just know that I am not cut out to raise a SN child.


This is obnoxious and self aggrandizing. You don’t have a special needs child, you told OP, because you made better family planning decisions. That is 1) not how it works and 2) rude AF. You don’t have a SN child because you aren’t “cut out” to raise one. This is 1) not how it works and 2) dumb. Nobody, not even a professional who works with SN kids, not even the most patient person, is made for the job. You do what you have to when you opt to have children. You take it as it comes. Saying oh I could never do it is asinine. If your kid falls off the monkey bars tomorrow and gets aTBI, if you get in a gnarly car wreck tomorrow, and you have a disabled child, you will be doing it. Imperfectly, like all SN parents do, against their will like almost all SN parents do. They didn’t exactly select the hard option by not following your fool proof guide to not having SN children.


Not the PP but this response seems over the top aggressive. Not every comment is intended to offend, and if you take offense at every imperfectly worded comment, the problem is with you.

Sorry you feel this way, OP.

I do not regret having kids. Not in the slightest. And that is saying something because I have two teen children.

I would not trade a moment of parenthood for anything.
