That’s the really the main issue is being a parent alone. That’s why you never really hear men complaining about parenthood because their role is limited.

Thank you !!!!!!!! People are missing the part where a lot of mothers regret it because they do it alone !!!!!! The older generations refuse to tell younger women that they will have to cope with that possibly Be ok with that if they want kids It’s like they hide the ugly because they know it’s daunting I believe that wanting to be a mother is a biologically designed insanity “Baby fever” The irrational desire to take on so many risks and responsibilities!!! Is needed to keep the species I thank god I’ve come across these conversations before some fool got me

Watching my mother be a miserably married single mother was all the birth control I needed. Worked an outside job and still had to come home and take care of 5 kids. My father came home after work and sat his azz in his easy chair to either watch MLB or the Rockford Files. My Mother died at 59 years young from stress induced heart failure. My older sister is also childfree. Thanks for the life lesson Mom. RIP ❤🙏🏾 🪦

I think this shame is also sometimes getting labeled as postpartum depression when really it’s just women realizing what they did to themselves. They’re realizing that they trapped themselves in this role for the rest of their lives and it’s daunting.

The stuff they were saying about her was so shocking. everything is not postpartum depression. Some stuff is u are unfit to be a parent and u were irresponsible to bring them here. And now the situation is crap for everyone and the child is being abused. AND U NEED TO BE CALLED OUT.

I absolutely love my children but my biggest regret was having them when I was not ready or prepared. It's absolutely wonderful when you find a good man who is loyal and also have family support and everything is planned out in advance. In my situation both father's of my children walked out on us ,leaving me to raise these children on my own. It was extremely tough and I cried most days. Also my family is extremely dysfunctional and abusive and I can't count on them or get support or help from them. I feel terrible that I had children in this situation and can't give them the life they both deserve and with father's who actually cared about them. I don't regret my children I just regret the situation I brought them in to.

She also said that I would be in charge of her funeral aesthetics, but I’m not entitled to anything else 😂 I told her to remove my name from everything and I wish her a peaceful death.

My mom passed away in 2019, that was the moment I resigned myself from having children. One of the reason an ex fiancé and I didn’t work out was because I wasn’t ready to have children. As an African, it’s a lot of pressure to have children, and you get treated like second class or less of an adult if you don’t have children. Today, I’m believing more more that I don’t want children. I just know deep down I won’t be able to handle it and fear of no support has made that decision much easier. I have worked full time job, one part time and gone to school full time, no brainer, with no sweat. But having children to me, seems to me would be like having ten jobs. I salute the mothers, y’all are truly a blessing to this earth. And this men have no idea how deserving you all are.

Your feelings are valid sis ! I’m Southern African and I knew at 9 and told my mum that I want nothing to do with being a parent. I knew then and even more convinced now at 28 years old that I do not have the temperament to raise a child the way a child is supposed to be raised to foster emotional intelligence. Many parents have no idea how to actually cultivate little humans.

I just block it all out all I gotta do is look at reality around me to know not to do it.

Some of these mothers who regret motherhood are also not good mothers. My mother left me home alone when I was 2 years old and went to work. Just told me to sit in this chair and don't move. So many women hate being anyone's mother. But a lot of them don't bother mothering and instead throughly neglect their children while at the same time acting like they are doing so much. The only time my mother knows I exist is when someone else mentions me. I can literally tell who talked to her last based on the reason for her call. Not all women who have children are mothers. A lot of them don't think about their children and only care about them insofar as their image as a mother is important to others.

I feel you. I also adore my daughter and I live and breathe for her. It's just that motherhood is difficult and tiring. For me, I was on a path to destruction and realised that I was directionless and in a toxic relationship. I felt that my child was a gift from God. I've never wanted a child but I'm grateful for her because if it wasn't for her, I would still be in a very toxic relationship with her deeply emotionally damaged father. He wanted her because he wanted permanent access to me. When I finally broke up with him, he stopped coming around to see his daughter. Single motherhood is draining and not a lot of mothers have a village to count on for support. I'm grateful for mine

Men want offsprings but are not consumed with the care and protection of their offsprings as a woman would be, even for a step-child or any child in your care that you loved. It's different for us women, cause when we take on the care of a child it consumes us, on a mental and biological level, unlike for men. Men, wanting kids is like a child wanting a new toy or pet to show off but that all consuming need to protect and provide for your child at any cost, the constant worry about it's safety, it's not that deep for men. Men, in society asked us for kids, like it's a light thing.

This is a common tale for many women alot of women coming up now can remember the mothers going through it even if they don't talk about it. And that reality causes many women to be childfree.

Comparing the choice of having a child and regretting it to someone working at Walmart and regretting it was a terrible analogy. The Walmart employee can leave Walmart and get a different job. It's no where near the same thing. You can't disregard another human life in the same manner. This is a good video and im glad people are starting to be honest about this topic. That comparison that one person gave was just way off.

The comparison was spot on. The comparison was about people making choices and then complaining about it later. We allow people who choose to take a crap job to complain about the choice they made. Why dont we allows parents to vent about how difficult parenting is? If anything, comparing it to a bad job enhances the point because you can quit a bad job. You can't easily quit being a parent.

Motherhood is a sacrifice no one else will understand. It is truly all encompassing. I'm a mom because I refused to have an abortion. I accidentally became pregnant after years of infertility. It was a new relationship and I was completely shocked to find out I was pregnant. I thought I had a kidney infection! I always promised myself I would just go have an abortion if there was an unwanted pregnancy, but I couldn't emotionally bring myself to do it. Having my daughter has been the most rewarding experience, but the most exhausting! The pregnancy was extremely traumatic mentally/physically. I gained 100 lbs and had severe preeclampsia. I also completely lost my own identity. Plus my relationship was abusive. I left my boyfriend and now he's homeless on the streets and back on drugs. I'm raising her by myself. It's so hard! And yes, the constant worry about your baby or someone hurting them is so traumatizing. I pray constantly!! Especially with all the kidnappings and school shootings. May God help everyone 🙏♥️

I understood her so much more when I became a mom. Any way I felt was forgiven. She's just a girl, living this life for the 1st time. We are all victims of our circumstances and she's no different.

My mom is so desperate to have children. Me, my mom and dad had our final discussion regarding it. Whenever I would tell my mom the things that could happen, she would respond, “See you always thinking negative”. Im like wtf? You’re so busy glorifying motherland like it’s the best (not saying it’s not) but it also has its downsides…I could go through terrible post partum/depression etc. At least tell me the cons instead of just the pros. My father even though he wants a grandchild he said, “It is up to you, it’s your body. When/if you do decide to be a parent we’ll be here to support you”. That in itself meant more to me than talking to my mom. She just sounded selfish honestly, “I want to be called grandma”, “Everyone has a grandchild but me”….I even told my mom I almost had a breakdown/stroke due to stressing over that.

As a childless woman I think I can for us- we DO realize that mothers do have these feelings of constant anxiety and worry and yes the sweetness of their love too. And we do know that there are some that regret the role (not their children). That is why we choose not to have children. Because speaking for myself I take this role very set and it’s a LIFETIME ROLE. My question is why do mothers put down women who choose to not have children?? After all multiple children at some point is a choice!

Look into the personal development school. You can heal your attachment trauma and heal many of the behaviors that result from your upbringing: Avoiding conflict Emotional repression or being disconnected from your emotions poor at giving or withholding avoid empathy Low level entitlement Social anxiety Patterns of worry/ anxiety Irritation lack of beliefs repressed needs defectiveness schema Emotional distancing instability and inconsistency rigidity addiction hyper independence emotional neglect of self or others controlling of environment/ space lack of expression dismissive of others. These are just some of the behaviors that result from being neglected as a child. It is freeing once you understand that your behavior is due to the programming you received. You can reprogram your subconscious and heal. The program promises a break through in 30 days.

I helped my sister raise her children I was both hands-on and financially the “dad” Because unfortunately the deadbeat dad just wouldn’t. I do not regret helping my sister - But I can tell you that was the hardest 20 years I can imagine. Being a parent is no joke - It is an all-consuming undertaking and not everybody’s up for that. I thought I always wanted kids For a while, I was really disappointed that I didn’t have my own, but then I realize the universe needed me to be there for my sisters kids…. I’m willing to bet more than half of these child free women have children in their lives. Children they love and care about and worry for…. I have an incredibly anxiety about my nieces and nephews, and they’re all adults now I can’t imagine the level of anxiety that both of my sisters must feel.

I thought one day I’d feel that maternal need but I cannot feel it within myself at all and I’m thinking I’ll end up having a baby just to please him but I really don’t want one and I’m scared to speak up about this.

Honestly even sometimes I feel like it’s understandable to regret the child itself. I have alot of chronic health problems and will likely rely on my mother for support for the rest of my life. Sure, neither of us asked for me to be born this way but I would not fault her for feeling even a little regret for not going on birth control after my sister was born, for staying with my dad or even for going through with the pregnancy if that was ever something she considered considering they where about to separate before discovering she was pregnant again. I also had alot of behavioral problems as a child and was a complete nightmare. Listening to stories of my own behavior at even 8 years old is downright shameful, I’m really not sure what switch in my brain flipped and when but I’m glad i didn’t stay like that. Still, most parents don’t sign up for this role with the expectation that they’ll be caring for their child for until they die. If alot of parents of disabled children knew ahead of time that they would never had the freedom to spend time on their own ever again because their kid wouldn’t ever move out, I bet at least a few parents would’ve had second thoughts. I’d still be hurt if my mother said it to my face, but if she thinks that way I’d understand.

Do you regret becoming a mother Maria? I think it can be a lot of work and tiring if you don’t have adequate help. For women who can afford it, have someone come & help with cooking & cleaning so you can enjoy cuddling your baby & eating warm meals you didn’t have to slave over. For women who can’t afford, pray & talk to your husband about seeing if you can share the cooking & cleaning responsibilities. Ask a friend if she can come over & watch your baby while you clean & make lunch for them & do the same for them. If you have family close by, ask them for help. Maybe 1-2 days per week or a week long per month. What I really hear are tired moms who feel like it’s too much work. What it sounds like to me is that they don’t enjoy all the work & I don’t blame them. It’s too much to work full-time, clean, & cook. I work full-time (from home) & homeschool. I am married as well. We do not have a cleaning lady. Some things that I have done to not feel overworked are the following: - Cook large crockpot meals for two days worth of dinner - Cook two large meals per week so four home cooked dinner meals come from mommy. - Dad makes one large meal for two nights since he commutes & leaves at 6:30 am and is in traffic going and coming home from work. - I homeschool during breakfast. I make a simple breakfast. Scrambled eggs, warm up organic pancakes, & wash fresh fruit. 10 minutes maximum. - For lunch, I make 5-10 minute meals. Sandwiches, Chicken nuggets, Grilled cheese with fruit & ready cut carrots. I homeschool during lunch again for 20 mins & then take a 20-30 min fun walk with my sweet children. They collect flowers for me. Blow kisses at me. Hug me & tell me they love me while we walk. Show me the birds. ❤️ - When my husband comes home, he takes a shower & nap. Then he takes the girls on a bike ride or the park, so I can have alone time. 🙏🏼🙏🏼 - We always eat dinner together. Then take a family walk. Then watch a family movie for 30 mins. - My husband handles the bedtime routine - I do the girls laundry & mine. My husband prefers to do his own & helps with bedding. - My husband cuts the grass, takes out the trash, vacuums, & makes weekend breakfast & sometimes weekend lunches. My husband fixes our cars and does all DIY home projects. My husband goes grocery shopping. My husband loads & unloads the dishwasher & cleans the stairs. My husband cleans our cars and takes our girls to ballet! ❤️ - I clean 3 bathrooms, our master bedroom, & steam mop the floors. I homeschool two different grade levels. I teach them math, reading, history, health, and all other subjects. I take the girls to swimming class & play dates. - The girls clean their rooms & playroom. After 6 years old, I hand those responsibilities to the kids. They must pick up all their toys & put them away. Kids are not allowed to make messes on first floor. 😂 So, I only do light dusting and steam mopping there. - The girls & my husband help with folding laundry. They love to help me! 🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️ We chat & giggle about things. - My husband gives me alone time when he takes the girls to ballet, goes grocery shopping or takes them on bike rides or to the park. - I give my husband alone time when I run errands with my girls 1-2 times per week. Some days are so exhausting but it’s not my girls. It’s this life of constant working. I would have to make meals even if I wasn’t married & didn’t have kids. Working a full-time job can be mentally draining. The days I am off work, I feel as free as a bird. I have 3 days off & our entire house is clean for this weekend, so I will just be enjoying our family. 🙏🏼🙏🏼❤️ We do eat out on days we simply don’t feel like making anything. My husband finally got onboard after a couple years of marriage. 😃 My mother-in-law & sister-in-law didn’t help Bc they said it was junk to eat out. 🤨🧐 I don’t want to convince women to want to be moms because I had a mom who didn’t enjoy it & it hurt me. Thankfully, I am the opposite. Initially, I didn’t ever think about having children. Just never thought about it. My husband wanted 5! I bargained for 1! 🙈 Until I became a mother, I then wanted a second child. Now, I want a third but because I work & homeschool I don’t think it’s wise. Being overworked is what I hear these women not liking and that makes sense. Oh & I only use disposable compostable plates & silverware so that I have easy clean up after meals. 🙈🤩🤩 Wishing all you ladies the best!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼

Women are not allowed to say how they really feel. Period. Let alone, share how they feel about being a mother. People are so quick to judge another person and then tell them how they are doing something wrong. Let's stop that for a second, and really try to listen to the other person. It's called active listening. Guess what? We all have regrets. And there are women and men who regret being a parent. Sadly, though, they cannot share their regrets on this topic because of the backlash and judgment they'll get from so called family and so called friends. As humans, we make mistakes. And sometimes those mistakes end with a pregnancy. Yes, I said it. Some pregnancies ARE a mistake. Pregnancies happened with and without contraception. Some pregnancies are due to a criminal act. Some even happen on purpose, but only to end up as a mistake or a regret (ex: I wonder if the mothers of Hilter, Jeffrey Daumer, Charles Manson, and Richard Ramirez felt any regrets?). Sometimes women experience post partum depression. Which for years, they had to suffer in silience because of the backlash and judgment they knew they would receive if they said, outloud, how they trully felt towards their baby or being a mother. Because apparently, being a mother is all rainbows and sunshine, and how dare you say anything other than rainbows and sunshine. I have seen several of my friends go through post-partum depression. It is a dark place to be in. Here's another nugget of informaiton: NOT EVERY WOMEN SHOULD BE A MOM! That's right, and we should be more understanding and empathetic to women when they realize they made a mistake. Let's help them find a solution. Even is that solution is giving up their child. Because that might just be the best outcome for the child. That is, if we are really concerned about the child, and not punishing or shaming mothers.

I’m a mom of one and I love it ! I also want to have more kids 🥰. My daughter was not planned and I kept her because she deserved mercy,just because I could conveniently terminate the pregnancy didn’t mean I ought to. Having this baby taught me to grow up. I realized that I love to work and I discovered this efficiency and resourcefulness deep with in me. She is the best thing I have ever accomplished she is flawed, and so am I. But she’s perfect to me nonetheless. I love the responsibility, I love to be in charge and doing things with her it is exhilarating. Children have their own way of seeing the world and it’s refreshing to see the world through their eyes. I thank my lord Jesus for sending the greatest love I have ever experienced beside his. I’m grateful to be of service for this utterly important job. I have a mission and I am entrusted to better society by raising a good and generous person. Honestly all the sacrifices feels okay compared to the reward 😄

Don't have children if you romanticise being a mum. Its hard, its not easy and definately not for everyone. I love being a mum and zero regrets over here. I had my baby at 35 so i made sure i did all i wanted to do. Most of you had babies when you were too young that's why you are bitter

The filter that you used to save time is horrific. Instead of focusing on the valuable insight that these mothers are providing, I was turned off by the fast-paced chipmunk voices. Terrible decision on your part to do that, really ruined what could have been an incredible experience.

Yes there should be lots of shame. Getting pregnant for approval to catch or keep the man. Or thinking your life will be filled with love because you can have a baby. Disgusting.. then the baby comes and its not the way you wanted it to be. Women are selfish and manipulative at the core. Never fooled by all these happy mummy posts. The regret is when they do not receive the status and feelings they were expecting. Nasty!! These poor children coming into the world through selfish women who was only thinking of self.

Come on OP. Please don't call women "selfish" when they would also be demonized for NOT having kids. If you are a woman, you are devalued when you do have kids and still shamed for being childfree. Either way, you can't win.

You right!! They also have kids just so the kids can slave and take care of them in old age!! No regards to their kids own adult lives, no regards to the fact that they are being a liability and burden to their kids!! They fail to plan for their old age/retirement then dump that burden on their adult struggling children who can't even survive in this damn economy! I laugh at parents who think they can put all their eggs in one basket and bank on their kids being their caretakers in old age 😂

There's plenty of shame and guilt no matter what decision you make as a woman about your reproductive state. So you might as well do what you want.

My oldest daughter had seventy four seizures between 15 months and 6 years and that was like sticking my foot in hell. So many hospitals stay as hospital visits. Medications Vita barbecue hurricane drug dub. I finally had to stop giving her that because she was like a zombie. We had to move to another state to get her out of heat so much and I would do it a 1000 times over to have had her and her is wonderful. At least it was for me. Don't listen to what other people say about motherhood. Every experience is different.
