Violet :
I’m not joking at all when I say it. My life could have been fabulous. Instead it’s mediocre and hard.

Imagine being that child who knew they were regretted. That’s a horrible thought. I love kids, but I would prefer to foster them one day.

Bramble :
listen, im 20 and suddenly have everything in common with my mother who had me at 19 because we're both 20 for the first time 😅 that's all the proof I need that I never want children, and if I ever change my mind, I will not be having them in my 20s. mom should have gotten to enjoy her 20s.
she shouldn't have had to wait until she was 40 to be 20.

I secretly love indulging in the regretfulparents subreddit. It serves as a repeated reminder that I’ve made the correct choice to remain child free. I have a disabled adult relative who lives with me and requires total care, and I struggle daily with the mental load that this brings. I just know a child would have given me the same, or possibly worse, stress.

The Rumor Mill :
My mom straight up said she regrets having kids… told me that she didn’t sign up to give birth to me. Idk why she didn’t. Abortion was a thing in 2004😀

I told mine "You did. 3 whole times. Why do you think I'm depressed, (middle child) is bipolar, and (third child) has selective mutism?"

The C Major :
The kindest thing my mother has ever done for me was saying “I love you girls, but being a mother is awful”. We’re all childfree and happy.

Read the study “Regretting Motherhood” by Orna Donath. Plenty of mothers regret becoming mothers.

heavy on the rather regret not having them then having them and regretting having them.

me insisting I don't want kids. my mom insisting "I SAID THE SAME THING YOU'LL CHANGE YOUR MIND LIKE I DID!!" She had me at 22. I'm 32. when does she think that'll happen?

Ri Ri :
The ones who push for having children also don’t think that some people don’t want to have children because they don’t want to pass on chronic illnesses and disabilities because we don’t want them to suffer they way some of us have. 💔

⚢ aarorea ⚢ :
my mum loved being pregnant & having kids (apparently she wanted 3 but my dad said hed leave her) but she had me & my brother at 38-41. id guess why she liked it was because she was financially stable at the time & also we have universal healthcare & had experience with babies for years before

“What about all of the kids who know for a fact that their parents regret having them?”

Completely true...my new hire trainer actually admitted to being a regretful parent when I mentioned being child free. He said I made a smart move. I also have a friend that is also a regretful parent. She often tells me she wishes she never had any either.

Reading this is so sad I feel bad for peoples kids. I knew kids weren’t for me I love them but they aren’t for me I would be a bad parent.

This is completely true. My mom had three kids before me. I was the fourth and the last and I’m the only accident and I don’t take it personal or anything, but she tells me every now and then whenever she gets down and thinks about it that she kind of wishes she’d never had me she loved me but I wasn’t planned and she wanted to stop at 3 kids not 4

OpticalConclusion :
My folks stopped at one. They stopped bringing me on trips with them at 14 and would leave me home alone. They begged me to buy a house close to them, now they haven’t visited me at my home in 8 months. Don’t invite me over except for holidays. I don’t have kids because they made it seem so hard and clearly don’t want to spend time with me really. Got a full ride through college, hard worker, married a great guy… it’ll never be enough.

BrownGirlTakesOn :
The older I get the less appealing parenthood looks. I feel like without the burden of children I can use my time to try to accomplish more goals and dreams.

I like children and spending time with them but I know that I'm just not fit to be a parent I rather spend my money on myself or my mom
