It's perfectly normal for new parents to have worries about raising their children.
However, in a shocking new thread on secret sharing app Whisper, mothers and fathers have revealed why they regret ever giving birth to and raising their youngsters.
Some of the posts are heartbreaking and reveal the emotional pressure that parenting can inflict.

If there was ever a gift from God, it's grandchildren ... because they come seemingly from nowhere, you see.
Anyway, that's my feeling.
I have said for years, if there is such a thing as reincarnation, I want to come back sterile....I don’t regret having all the children I have, but going through it once is enough....
Fake news is a setup. The left is pushing into open speech control of the Web. Best way to fight back is to discredit them as they try to discredit us.
Liberal press won’t report it, just as they won’t talk about why 20% of women hit middle age childless versus the traditional 10% - and how many of them WANTED children but never could/would.
They don’t talk about how fertility declines at 30 and drops off hard after 35. Instead, you see discussions on egg freezing at companies offering it as cutting edge family benefits, without any talk about how unlikely it is that will result in anything. You see articles on surrogate mothers used to help homosexual men become parents but not the heavy demand for surrogates because women are left barren by repeated STDs.
Adoption is portrayed as so heart wrenching, and so often results in someone coming BACK, that some choose to just end the pregnancy.
LOL!
No offense intended, but if you think they come from ‘nowhere’, you’ve got a memory issue :-)
Well see, it’s just that you’re not really figuring on it, and you’re not directly involved, you know? It’s a cosmic surprise.
“And you may ask yourself, How did I get here?”
“( Water flowing under, flowing under ... ) “
LOL!
I guess Life just ‘happens’! And we’re amazed.
:-)
It’s in the very heart of being human. Loving your child that is. When you abort you wrench a serious part of your humanity away. When you regret a child something similar happens.
I am. I'm a veritable font of amazement.
Fake. Or these are some truly sick people.
Be it about children or relationships or careers or whatever, life is the sum total of every thought, word, experience, and decision acted out in a world with an unknown tomorrow.
Some people were better guessers than I, or were more optimistic, or simply had an actual sense of direction in looking down the road, or merely understood that there was a road.
At least I understand that God has a rectification process, so things can turn about in the weirdest ways. Ironically, there's always tomorrow..
Well, you are sterile in your mind, so congratulations.
My grandmother was married 57 years and had 6 kids. I asked her near the end of her life if she’d do it all over again. She snorted and said, “No! I wouldn’t get married. I’d join the Army!”
I think if people really do not want kids, they definitely should not have them. They aren’t in the right midset to do a good job, and too many people take a half-assed approach to raising kids we get the snowflake generation or the me-me-me they learn from the “parents”.
We are all better off if the people who don’t want kids, don’t have them. The large majority of folks eventually do want kids, it’s not like the world is in danger of the population collapsing. I would rather the folks that want kids have them so they can have the committment and love to do a good job at raising them.
Having children fulfills and completes me. It is in my programming.
I’m in my 40s and have a 5 month old. It’s an awesome, profoumd experience that I am immensely grateful for.
I understand being overwhelmed and exhausted from children; dealing with that a bit right now in fact, but anyone who doesn’t love kids needs a kick in the dome with a steel toed boot.
They were raised wrong. Or is it just the that English people suck?
I am glad my parents had a kid. :-)
This article is 100% aimed at honkies, who are supposed to naturaly UNDERSTAND they’re slated for BEING history.
You understand, and then you’re SOPHISTICATED, you’re sort of OKAY.
I’ll bet EVERY one of the contributors was a honky, too.
If the leftist readers learned there were a single ETHNIC contributor to that article, I’m sure they’d be horrified.
Doesn't this include you?
Go hang around in support groups for a few years. Many parents are hell on earth. Not a few, but many parents are hell.
And those parents believe they are good parents. Now the parents with courage enough to enter support groups realize they raised mentally ill children. And they realize there is NOTHING they can do about it.
Now some of the folks spent 30 years of their life recovering from the hell. So some had no children but those who had repeat the cycle.
Whenever a parent tells me how good they raised their young ones, I smile and think, if you only knew. If they only knew their kids are getting well recovering from the hell.
