Planned Parenthood
People only talk about the joys of parenthood and rarely talk about what happens when you bring an unplanned child to the world. Opening up about something like this takes a lot of courage, which is why some people find it hard to confide in their close friends, family, or even a therapist. Instead, they choose to share their thoughts anonymously on social media.
Admitting to yourself and other people that parenthood wasn’t a choice for you, but rather something forced on you and that you sometimes regret being a parent is hard. This doesn’t mean she doesn’t love and care for her daughter; she feels like being a parent means she gained something in life but lost her freedom and independence.
