[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t know exactly but I think the stigma is being reduced. I think there is a whole book with stories or anecdotes from moms who regret having kids. I’m glad people are actually saying it. Those stories are important to hear for those who are deciding whether or not to have kids. [/quote] I don't regret having my one kid (and I knew I was only going to have one). That being said, in a safe space or anon, I think it's ok to admit that you regret having kids if you found you really weren't a great parent/caregiver/arent capable of being loving and warm after all. In fairness, no one knows that for sure until you have kids. I do think it's good for those questioning if they want kids or not to hear people on both sides vs. just the "when are you having kids?" family members… [/quote]
