[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s extremely rare for someone to say they regret having more children. Unless the parent was a shitty parent who didn’t want to be one. Maybe it’s taboo. [/quote] That’s because once additional children are here, they’re actual people so of course normal parents aren’t going to regret their own children that they love more than anything. There are also cases where people absolutely love their additional children but will acknowledge that their family dynamic was negatively impacted. Often when people regret having more, they’re being hypothetical, not factoring in actual people with all of the love and emotion and attachment that form with real people. People are imagining some perfect scenario that the additional children would bring to their family when in reality it may have been nothing like their imagination. [/quote]
