    Child free women exist.
    People: your selfish
    Mom of one exist
    People: the child is lonely, have more
    Women with two kids exist
    People: but they are the same gender, have one maybe it will be a boy/girl. Dont you atleast want a big family?
    Women with five kids exist
    People: thats a lot of children, do you even give all your children enough attention??
    Working mom exist
    People: so someone is raising your children while you're at work??
    Single mom exists
    People: you should have chosen a better man. Children need their fathers
    All this to say you can never please anyone with your decision. Do what pleases you and what works for you ❤

    One and done here! My son is EVERYTHING to me, and I am so lucky to have him. That said having children means a lot of personal sacrifice, and I hit my limit for that at one child. Money, time, attention, independence, freedom to do things spontaneously, ability to go out after 6pm, social life, hobbies, my body and on top of all that my sex and dating life have all been hugely impacted or completely sacrificed for my child. I haven’t dated in 7 years as I am worried my terrible taste in men will hurt my child. It’s a lot. And because of all this, and more, I’m done at one.

    It's $15.99 for Hagandaz ice cream. Eggs are $11. Everything has doubled in price in less than four years. They have so many made up fees on power etc. Every single month it has increased for four years. Flour is now $5 for the smallest package. It's becoming cheaper to eat out than bulk buy and cook. TP is $25. Never mind if you have pets too. Oi!! Cat food $25. So either peeps have a trust fund or major inheritance or what. You're poor at $100k in any city. And not everyone wants to live in the middle of no where. You have to homeschool and that's mad expensive while still being made to pay for public school. Private school is a joke. They're so coddled....
    So, who are your children going to play with. They're all on their phones. Have you met Milenial parents? It's like they're all still in HS, and their kids are beyond.....have you spent time with the youth of today?
    You can raise your child as well as you want, then they meet their peers and the what the what....starts. Parents are off planet and the booooo meeeers driving on the roads needs to stop. They think all the lanes are theirs, especially the passing lane, they go slow in the fast lane. So teaching your kid how to drive.....the elderly are 🚗 🧱
    So, if you have lots of children, what third space you going to provide? They aren't all playing outside anymore.
    It seems unkind to bring anymore peeps here. Let's fix this place and then have children.
    Until then, just say none and done. 😊

    I really think it helps if your parents are there for you when you're a kid. I didn't feel lonely but I wasn't doted on 24/7 either. There has to be a balance.

They told me I was putting too much responsibility on my sole child when I get old. But are those people going to do the doctor 's visits, late night feedings, diaper changes, child care? No, they aren't. Who says my child will take care of me when Im old? Who said I want that? No, thank you. As the poster said, I like the soft parent life. Post partum was crazy. I didn’t like delivering vaginally, scared of a C-section, I gain so much weight, my feet swelled, no thank you! I like to sleep and got the child suited for my personality the first time. Why roll the dice and end up with one that doesn't? Also, my child's father showed his whole dirty behind after I got pregnant. Left a bad taste in my soul. Im glad I did it, I don't want to do it again. We have a good life. It’s great. I also hate the school system, other people's parenting styles and a lot of the things attached to parenting. I also can't afford another child. Im good with one.

      @@Mika-439 I appreciate hearing this because my husband and I have decided to have just one child, our daughter. Recently, she expressed that she feels lonely as an only child in grade school, which surprised me since we are a very close-knit family and she’s never alone. It broke my heart to hear her say she sometimes feels lonely. I’ve never been particularly drawn to having a lot of children; I always envisioned having just one. After our daughter turned two, my husband and I agreed to stick with that decision. I’ve thought about having a second child for her sake, but it’s not something I genuinely want, and I don't feel it would be fair to have another child just to provide her with a sibling. Did you ever experience feelings of loneliness growing up? If so, how did you deal with those feelings?

      @ no I wasn’t lonely I was in lots of activities and had friends it teaches you to be comfortable with yourself you can have many siblings and feel lonely I was a quiet homebody & not very social I still am so I enjoyed the peace that comes with being an only child. I appreciate the sacrifice that was made to bring me here and everything that was done was with only me in mind. That is an amazing indescribable feeling that the child feels but definitely appreciates later in life. We tend to be very well adjusted and an fyi only children are more rare than twins. I personally feel that the most selfish thing a person can do is have a child. I am also child free by choice that could change if that were to happen it would definitely be only one& she doesn’t care about being a grandmother she wants whatever makes me happy. My mother never had a pull after me to have another child and she is an awesome mother I’m so blessed that she’s mine. Enjoy the life god blessed you with and pour into her as much as you can & she will do the rest. best wishes and blessings to you and her🩷🤗

    One and done mama right here! You couldn’t pay me to have another child. Not because of the economy nor movements nor revoking of reproductive rights. Simply because I don’t want no damn more! I don’t regret my kid but the responsibility of one kid is more than enough and I have a very active coparent and village on both sides of the family. I saw someone comment about ‘soft parent life’ and baby I’ve had it for 13yrs. You can’t have that with multiples unless you have nannies and I don’t want those either. Forever #TeamOneAndDone 🥳 🥂

    I always wanted 2 children. I had my first child later in my reproductive years and caused me to have health issues, even 4 years after birth. The thought of having a 2nd pregnancy and birth terrified me, putting my body and health at risk, even though I really wanted another child. I think of the child I have now and feel that even though a sibling would be wonderful, having a mother who is ALIVE and able to care for her is the biggest priority. It's something I decided with a heavy heart but I will do everything to ensure my child is happy regardless of missing out on the sibling experience.

    The negativity associated with being "selfish" is so impressively stupid🙄
    Think about it for 2 seconds. You are literally the ONLY person who can be selfish for you.
    You are the only person who fully understands your own physical, mental, and emotional abilities and limitations.
    You are the only person responsible for yourself. If you aren't being selfish then you are being very careless.
    Those advising us about OUR childbearing decisions do not have to live with the consequences of those decisions. WE do.
    I am the eldest girl of 11 siblings. While i love each of my siblings, and am greatful to have them in my life, our childhood was miserable. Our parents had more children than they could afford or had time to care for. By 9 I was tasked with so many of their parenting responsibilities (bottles, diapers, babysitting, meals). We grew up feeling emotionally neglected, and our parents rarely had time for us. As adults we are now all estranged from them. I feel like quantity is not the answer when the sacrifice is quality.

And you can have siblings and still be lonely. And if your husband or baby father wanna act up and you need to leave guess what you only have one kid and not saddled with 2-3. You can't trust these men.

      That’s normal for larger families, especially those from a certain era. My dad had 13 siblings, and my mom had 10. I think it’s unethical to have large families cuz there is no way all the kids get adequate attention, the older kids are parentified, and it’s so easy for abuse and other horrible things to happen. Not to mention the state of poverty which constantly drags the family down and messes with the kids future goals like higher education which is necessary to get out of poverty.

Nothing about newborn or toddler hood excites me. I’m currently in the thick of “terrible 2s” and pushing just to get through the hours, let alone days that seem longgg & mentally & physically draining. Everyone keeps saying I’ll meet this man that’ll make me want more but it’s not about him , it’s about me & he can’t do the parenting work for me and that’d be unfair to my child and him to know I don’t want that responsibility.

    I do understand there are a multitude of reasons why some women are one and done. But as an abandoned only child whose mother started having strokes when I was 19....PLEASE either make arrangements for the future (because anything can happen) or have multiples. My mom ended up my responsibility. Im now 45 and struggling to take care of her! No major assistance/help! I mean, none! So, yeah, think of the possibility of you being ill in future and your only child suffering. Please, try to financially set up something (while you are young) to assist with the possibility of this happening in your future. 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

God willing, I'll have multiple children who will support each other even better than she and I do, but that is my choice to make. Being childfree or having only one child is also a valid choice that can be made for any number of reasons.
    Everyone should do as they desire because having children out of obligation instead has created much of the brokenness we're dealing with today.

    A big one is babysitting and daycare. People love watching one kid but most people do not want to watch 3 or more kids; and daycare for three kids is higher than college tuition and a mortgage combined!! I also did not like how my body changed during and after pregnancy and I did not enjoy the infant stage at all. My child is almost 4 and I love hanging with him now. I couldn't imagine starting all over again for another 3 years of madness, stress, and no sleep. Also traveling and going to amusement parks, etc. We spend so much money with just the three of us. Paying for 2,3, 4, 5 kids in this economy means you can't take your kids anywhere fun. And lastly, much like the woman in the video, I just don't think I'm really the type of woman who can live her entire life for kids. There are some women who don't mind the total and complete sacrifice of their identify and they love the idea of motherhood. I thought I was that woman too...until I had a baby lol. I love my son but I can't say I love motherhood like other women seem to. I'm happy that I had a child though and I get to experience how beautiful it is to watch a human being that I made grow up into his own little person (which is so cool) but I will never have another one, lol.

      That's something I worry about. I have one child, and my fiance reeeally wants another. My parents have my daughter over for sleepovers once every 2-3wks, but I don't know if they'd be willing to do that as often if I have two kids.

      @@whitneyjoy4744 Yep! Same with my partner’s parents. His parents are getting older and our son with them some weekends. I don’t think they could handle another one. I’m almost certain of it.

      @@whitneyjoy4744 Let me put it to you this way. My cousin had a second child, and his parents made it very clear that he shouldn’t have because he and his wife could barely take care of one, and having the second child has put strain on his parents and the first child. Don’t have a second kid unless you absolutely can handle it mentally, physically, and financially.
