About this listen

Nobody ever asks parents if they regret having kids—but they should.

In this episode, we dig into parental regret, the taboo of admitting it, and the double standard that makes it perfectly normal to ask childfree people if they’ll regret not having kids, but outrageous to ask struggling parents if they regret having them.

We read real posts from parents who wish they’d made a different choice, break down societal pressure and postpartum regret, and ask: why are we forced to celebrate every birth, no matter how bad the circumstances?
