>Surveys conducted over the last few years on representative samples in the US and Germany suggest that the percentage of parents who regret having children is approximately 17–8%.
- DoingIsLearning 2y agoIn the study linked it seems that factors like: - Financial difficulties - Being a single parent - Having children with a disability All seem to vastly influence the result.
