[quote=Anonymous]Here’s my favorite essay on the topic: https://therumpus.net/2011/04/21/dear-sugar-the-rumpus-advice-column-71-the-ghost-ship-that-didnt-carry-us/ I didn’t want kids for the longest time, not because I didn’t like kids, I actually really do like kids and adore babies, so some people thought that was weird. I was worried about regretting having a kid, and figured I’d rather regret not having one than regret having one. As some point my attitude shifted, and I decided I did want ONE kid, and was lucky in that my boyfriend, now husband, was in agreement and I was able to get pregnant and have a healthy baby in my late 30s. But, I don’t think my life would have been any less or more happy had I not had a child. I don’t think I would have felt incomplete or that my life was less meaningful. It probably would have had the potential to have been more “fun” on a day to day basis, but the reality is, I would have just worked more. [/quote]
