Had to edit and repost, apologies, my brain should be resting. The last question isn’t really a joke: I read an article full of people who admitted they regret having a child/children. It made me go 🤔

This isn’t the one I read but there are many articles out there. I didn’t think it was so common. Another one is that favourites do exist. WTF.
‘It's the breaking of a taboo’: the parents who regret having children

It’s tiring, often boring – and can mean a return to more traditional roles. Why some mothers (and fathers) feel they made a mistake

@halcionandon I really really want(ed) to have children but I wouldn't be able to take care of them because of severe ME.
@skippingmoonrocks I’m very sorry to hear that. 🫂  
It’s a difficult subject. Maybe I shouldn’t have asked. I doubt very much I will have them either.

@halcionandon no i think it should be talked about more. People are like, if you don't have children it's because you're invertile, or because you don't want them. There are more complex options than that that are never talked about.

Thanks for hugging me. Very nice hugs.
