Here's a hot take: Having children just might turn out to be the worst thing that ever happened to you. What if your child turns out to have a rare and horrible disease, characterized by constant pain and suffering and where you spend all of your time and resources caring for them? What if your child has a mental illness and is constantly unhappy and hates you until the day you die? What if you and your partner split up and your partner makes it their full time job to poison your child's mind against you? What if it turns out that you actually hate having children and they make you crazy? Regret can go the other way as well.
- deltarholamda 4y agoA lot of parents of children with Down's relate how wonderful they are. I am a parent of kids with a genetic disease (cystic fibrosis). It is very difficult, and we had to make many changes in our life to accommodate the special requirements. But it has also led us into brand new directions we never would have even conceived of. And, of course, our kids are a constant joy, regardless of the troubles.
