[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Fact is, something like 14-20% of people regret having children.

If your sister is unsure about children and you feel her fiance pressuring her to have them, you may feel like you should defend her position.

There is nothing wrong with having children. 
There is nothing wrong with not having children. 
There is a huge problem with feeling forced or pressured to have children if you're not ready.

I'm glad she spoke up. I feel like she really has Emma's back. If/when Emma decides to have children, it's nice to know that it's for the right reasons, not because society or a man told you to. [/quote]

The statistics arent the point. And speaking up TO EMMA in private would receive no objection from me.

As an adult, it might not impact you today to hear your mom say to everyone in America and beyond “if I could have a do over at the end of my life and do it again, I would not have kids” —and maybe you’d just shrug it off as “well I guess my mom was one of the 14-20% who had regret” then good for you. I applaud your high self esteem and maturity as well as your keen ability to separate the statement as just a statistical fact that your mom happens to be a part of and not feel personally hurt that YOU were the regret. But you would be a rare person indeed.

I am not at all confident that hearing this from your mother as a child would not do significant developmental damage.

Sister could have chosen to zip it for the cameras and shared her private and valid thoughts …privately.
