[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm the quoted poster above.

No the parents may regret having kids but will always love the kids they have.  Moreover while you might hate parenting for x number of years you will never hate it forever.  I went through years I wished I could be childless but after you see your kids get to a certain age, you're glad you had.  1 year, 5 years, 10 years for count.  After 20 years and the kids grow up, chances are you will be glad you have someone who you know you gave to.  Obviously if you are just a selfish or something is wrong with you type maybe things aren't normal and there extenuating circumstances but most of the time, being a parent makes you fuller. Again - it's all emotional not practical perspective.  The time money energy will take your breath away so if you're into those things just don't think about parenting.  It's just something you are open to or not.[/quote]

Everything depends on how your kids turn out. If they have severe mental health issues or become addicts, it's very unlikely any parent would be waxing lyrical about their decision to have their child. I'm sure Mark Zuckerberg's parents are happy they had him; Elliot Rodger's parents no...so please be aware that it's all context-driven. [/quote]
