@brenden_cook: There is so much more that goes into having children than just “having children.” Postpartum, finances, emotional and educational support, etc. that making that decision should be something made with certainty😇 #parenthood #motherhood #parenting #relatable #hottake
My best friend told me, “unless you want a child so badly that you think about it multiple times a day, don’t do it”

YESSSSS. People are genuinely so flippant about the decision to have kids and forcing others into having kids, it’s actually INSANE. Literally the most important job in the world why are we so casual about telling people to jump into it

In all aspects of life let’s normalize not pushing things onto people when they aren’t interested in doing something just because we do/did it! ESPECIALLY having children!

Same for pushing people to have more than 1 or shaming people who are OAD. I love my 3 kids and have so much fun with them but I GET why you would only want 1.

I could not agree more. I want everyone to experience the joy it has brought me but it is a HUGE commitment! It’s not anyone’s place to tell someone to have a child.

Yes. And if someone says they don’t want to-idc. It’s their decision. Who am I to tell them “oh you may change your mind” or “oh that’s selfish” babe you do you
