Hi! So I don’t know if you need to hear this but if you are struggling right now just know that there is always someone looking out for you. His name is Jesus Christ who died on the cross for your sins! No matter how hard you have been broken, hurt, or cheated he will never leave you or forsake you. I know times can be tough, so how about we make a deal? Put your trust on Him for one week, and pray. See what happens! You would be pleasantly surprised. He helped me in hard and he will help you too:)

Next time people call you selfish for not having a child. Ask them what about them having their kid is not selfish? Cause most reasons people want kids: 1) Have their DNA reproduced 2). Have a mini them 3) Be happy 4) Have a reason to live 5) Have someone that will give them "unconditional love" 6) Looking like the "perfect family" 7) Feeling complete 8) Aesthetic 9) Having someone that will be loyal to them forever Nothing about such reasons like these seem self less

Do not let anyone tell you to have kids if you truly truly do not want them. It is no joke, being a mom myself. And although I adore my baby and I am so happy I have him, I’m not going to sit here and tell you it’s not hard sometimes. It’s not something you can give back. It’s a literal human and I wish more people would say that. The fact that more women are sharing how hard it truly is is very important. You do not have to get pregnant to have a child. You can always try to adopt a child and skip allll of that altogether. I respect women who can be honest with themselves and say that they truly don’t think they want children rather than having them and neglecting them.

More power to them. Womanhood is a vast and varied experience I love how women nowadays get to shows the differences of their experiences. It gives many more women choice and freedom to truly express their desires.

Is it though? There are mothers groups, maternity leave, paid parental leave, flexible working arrangements for those with kids, family tax benefits A and B and subsidised childcare and early learning. Parents usually end up with other parents as their core friendship group so there are sleep overs and little communities where you can all chat about parenting and vent etc. Grandparents are living longer so can help with babysitting. There are a million mum bloggers, family bloggers, therapy and counseling for parents. There is more awareness around PPD and PPP. Definitely waaaaaay more of a ‘village’ then twenty or thirty years ago.

⁠​⁠@@whitneyanders5945im not sure where you are living, but you need to remember it is NOT like that in most places in America. Parental leave is NOT flexible and it is NOT long enough, nor do they typically pay people for it even though they arguably need the money more now. Maternity leave in this country is AWFUL, giving you only several weeks with your newborn. Also please do not look at Momfluencers and think its easy to find community… its not. Another point, this country doesnt care about kids. They let them die in schools every day and they are seen but not heard. There are BARELY any kid exclusive spaces anymore like jungle gyms (we JUST got one in town.. in 2023). There are thousands of people talking about this.. the fact that the village isnt a thing anymore especially being a mother they get very little support and are often stigmatized.

​@@whitneyanders5945 where do you live that there is paid parental leave? Or childcare options? Or flexible hours for parents? As she pointed out, parents have less support than in the past because grandparents now are working instead of retiring, more women have to work so new moms they don't have the support of other moms. Wait lists for infant childcare where I am is almost a year long, meaning as soon as you find out you're pregnant you need to get on that wait list, it also costs about $1500 per month for full time child care (I've been a teacher in childcare centers for years so this is first hand knowledge, not just what I've heard). Very few people qualify for the childcare subsidies you're talking about. As for the tax credits, the $2000 deduction nowhere near offsets the cost of raising a child and most people still end up owing money even when they have children. When I used to work at Walmart years ago, I was one of 10 people I knew who worked overnights and only getting a few hours sleep while our kids napped or after our spouse got home from work, because we couldn't afford childcare but made "too much" to qualify for a subsidy despite the fact that that childcare costs were more than the monthly wage, none of my family was available to help because they were of course working as well. Obviously it was my choice to have children so it was my responsibility to figure out how to make it work but pretending that its easy to raise kids is just ridiculously disingenuous.

I got engaged then pregnant at 18. I got like 1000 stretch marks. It ruined my belly. But what I really wasn't ready for was at 22 years old finding out my son had severe autism. I remember hearing it and I LITERALLY BROKE. My mind just couldn't take it. I was pregnant with my daughter as well. They suggested therapeutic abortion about 5 minutes later. I BROKE YALL!. I didn't bond with my daughter (she's now 20 n we still ain't close). My autistic son ended up living with my mom. I got on drugs..heroin and Xanax. Whatever could drown out all the disappointment. I'm 43 n been clean for 8 years but I NEVER even smoked weed til I found out about my son. This was when Autism had no treatments or anything else. So, imagine that your child has downs, M.R., birth defects and you're 18 years old! There are super strong women out there (My Mama is one ❤) but most will mentally break.

Having children has always been hard. Motherhood has always exhausted women, it is just now that women have the rights and freedom to choose their way of life. Let us never forget that it was only a few years ago, were women allowed to divorce. Women before us, fought for us to vote, speak, work and choose what we can and cant to do to our bodies. Some women still have none of those rights. The fight is not over.

Society has women feeling that choosing to be child free is selfish. I feel like women do need to be selfish and do what’s best for them. Being child-free doesn’t mean you hate children. Once women become moms their identity becomes just that, a mother. It shouldn’t have to be that. Shaming moms for doing other things than being a mom is wild. I’m a new mom and I’m getting into the routine of things now with my baby. He’s well taken care of and happy. I’m taking the time to make sure I’m a priority as well. Having a social life and time for myself is a huge MUST.

As a Black woman that just enter their 20s, I do not want any biological kids. I already have mental health issues so Postpartum depression and postpartum psychosis scare the hell out of me. I struggle with suicidal thoughts all the time, but I can’t imagine killing my own sweet innocent baby or toddler because of PPP. Even if I no longer have mental health issues in the future, I still wouldn’t have bio kids. Black women are at such high risk of dying during the birthing process. Plus, kids especially babies and toddlers are extremely exhausting and expensive. If I want to have a child in the future I would definitely adopt and/or foster school-age kids and/or teens. If I had to spend my energy caring for another human being, my as well be a child who is already here on earth.

I work with children and sometimes prefer their company over adults (who can be very boring) but I will say that it always gives me peace of mind to know that there won't be any kids waiting for me when I come home. Since I work with children I know how demanding taking care of them can be, I try not to judge parents too harshly because of that. Anyways, great video!

The woman with the autistic child reminded me of this reddit post I found on the r/trueoffmychest where the poster said she hated being a mom because she couldn’t be like her other mom friends. Her child had been in some sort of accident and suffered a brain injury that essentially made them be mentally 5 years old for the rest of their life. The poster said she would cry whenever her friends would talk about their kids going to college, driving, getting married, getting jobs, etc. since she could never have that. She said she felt so guilty for basically hating the situation she was in, and she didn’t want to keep doing it. She loves her kid, but she can’t stand them. It honestly was so heartbreaking you could really see how badly it was affecting her physical and mental health

How many people can earth handle if we are all supposed to have kids. I always ask this people if we are supposed to have kids, how are we benefiting society?. In this moment so many kids are growing with their phone . We have reach the highest level of mental problems in USA and a lot of them are kids. So many teachers are leaving their careers because parents don’t discipline their kids plus is a lot of shootings now. .We are doing a very bad job as a society and we are not creating a respectful environment around us. Parents need to stop being entitled and teach their kids manners because what we are seeing now is the result of bad parenting. The level of entitlement of people is mind boggling. I don’t see people people trying to get along anymore. This people are just repeating what they were told by their parents and the church. Not everyone needs a kid and not everyone is going to be a good parent. We aren’t losing potential because the current parents are showing us that they are really bad at it. Is a good thing that the younger generation is waking up from this ridiculous rules.

My birth went well and release the next day. On days we were super tired, my sister in law came over and was our “night nurse”. The first two month postpartum, our families cooked meals and brought groceries. We were spoiled! There were some highly emotional days but that’s normal with the hormonal shift. My man is such a hands on dad and takes care of our baby well. No daycare- he works overnight and takes care of her during the day until I get home from work ( school therapist). The only con is the strain it can put on your relationship or more time for yourself. Not everyone has such a bad experience, I would love to have more kids. I enjoyed your video, it definitely gave me another perspective of motherhood that could be possible. Thank you

Thank you for sharing your positive experience of motherhood. These days I do think we need to hear more of these stories. It indeed takes a VILLAGE to raise a child. That’s something we lack a lot these days…we do a lot alone. That culture aspect is gone hence why I believe it’s become even harder for some parents.

​@@ToniBryanneTVI agree with you on this. I'm pregnant with my 5th child and I love having kids but that has not come without PPD and other mental issues, trauma, and a lot of it is the lack of support or lack of having a village. I always tell my husband that it would be so much easier having kids if we had a village to help. No one should have to raise children alone. It causes mental health issues for sure just like it did for me. When you get pregnant everyone is "happy for you". Once you have the baby, all your friends and family leave. As women we need to socialize and the ability to do so after motherhood is decreased. After I had such a traumatic pregnancy with my daughter and had ppd I used to be one of those I hate being a mom people. But it's hormones combined with isolation and mental illness and over time I was able to get my life back and I love my daughter so much and love being a mother. It's a hard ass season for sure. But it's just that. A hard ass season. ♥️

Very responsible decision. It's one thing to want kids, but whether you should is a whole 'nother thing. Wanting to be able to provide the absolute best is already a good indicator of your maturity, and refraining from conceiving when you know you aren't able to do so shows you are much more considerate of children than some people nowadays. Some people seem to forget that children are people too

To you it may seem like becoming a parent ruins lives. Most non-western parents are very fulfilled having children.

Still, most of the people from my country want children and never feel their lives were ruined for having children. Anyone is free to be child free. But to show such bitterness by degrading other people who choose and cherish parenthood is very disrespectful.

Post partum psychosis threw me for an entire loop when I first learned about. I watched a series about a mother who suffered from *severe* post partum psychosis and they had to lock the baby in a separate room to keep it away from the mother. It was scary but real. There needs to be more resources to support mothers. Physical therapy should be offered (women shouldn't have to cross their legs to sneeze to keep from peeing on themselves after childbirth). Mental/emotional therapy should be offered to support mothers pre-natal, during pregnancy, and postpartum especially to address depression, psychosis, and insecurities. Do NOT get me started on childcare and the joke that we refer to as "mAtErNiTy LeAvE". My professor was back to work *2 weeks* post partum. It was by her choice because she said she couldn't afford the reduction in pay if she took.....drum roll please...... the entire *4* weeks of maternity leave. She only took half to avoid the pay reduction. Currently, the job I work at only offers 4 weeks of "mATeRniTy LeAvE" at like 70% of your regular pay for vaginal births. If you have a C-section, it's 6 weeks. Smfh.

My mom experienced some of the worst doctors and nurses when she had me and my siblings. Luckily my mom was a nurse in her youth in England, so when it came to my younger sister literally dying from E. coli and dehydration the nurses did nothing and so did some of the doctors shrugging it off as “Oh, she’s being dramatic…”. Until a young doctor came in and diagnosed my younger sister with E. coli and thanked my mom for immediately putting her in fluids, if she didn’t do that she would have lost her. Where was my dad? His boss placed a gun to his head (metaphor) that if he left to see mom he would be fired on the spot, because the hospital called for him to come down immediately as it was an emergency. In conclusion, America doesn’t really care about the mother and the child until death is present and unfortunately my dad saw my sister after his shift.

Wow this video was an eye opener for sure. I knew being a Mother was hard on Women but to hear the risks out loud is a lot. Salute to the Mothers and salute to the Women who choose not to be Mothers. This is why I don't care about Men's opinion on childbirth much. Women have to hold a responsibility only they can understand. Uterus popping out.... It's definitely Her Choice on what she decides to do with Her Body. ❤

Me as a man I can't fathom bringing a child into this world, I have no opinions on CB if a women doesn't want to have child I support her choice I'm not going to tell a woman any different do what is best for you, if a woman knows deep down that they do not want to have a child , i have no problem with it, I'm a young man even I do not want to bring children into this very cruel and VERY expensive world.

I feel like in this current stage of human history, with everything going on in the world (severe climate change, war, famine, disease, inflation, rising costs of living, random acts of violence/terrorism, etc) it really truly take a certain level of delusion and cognitive dissonance to continue to bring children into the world and say, "No it's cool, none of this stuff going on right now is going to effect ME or MY kids. My kids are *definitely* going to have everything they need for the best chance of survival. And even if they don't, oh well, at least I can still get sympathy for deciding to become a parent in the 1st place."

I can relate to the uterus falling out. It didn’t fall out, but it’s super low now and at times needs a gentle shove. Also, the epidural didn’t work with my second and I could feel every tear and every stitch. I’ve lost a lot of feeling down there 😢. ETA: with my first, the placenta was falling apart in pieces. He stuck his arm up there and did the “electric mixer” and proceeded to say I may need a c section to get it out. I said absolutely not! He eventually got it all out, but even with the epidural, it was still extremely uncomfortable.

My hoohaa and hips still hurt but I’m currently doing dishes and scrubbing my kitchen counters 💪 I don’t think we get enough credit for the process. Thank you for giving such a detailed break down.

8months postpartum- whenever ppl ask me how I like babies- I say; only have them if you want them. I say this with love- because a lot of my toughness about how hard it can be is the fact that I wanted this child. I waited and prayed for this child- I wanted children. I can totally see how someone who didn’t see herself doing this can lose it faster. So yeah- only have them if you want them.

I’m so early! I love your channel. Honestly though, I might be in the minority but I actually do think a lot of Gen Z’ers want kids but financially, a lot of us are struggling to provide for ourselves much less another human. Also, there are tons of “regretful parents” stories out there that cause fear mongering. Lastly, Gen Z is still a VERY young generation. Most people in their 20s do not want kids. I’m curious to see how much it’ll change in the next 5,10+ years. I’m excited to watch this video though! I’m proud that the younger generations (which I’m a part of) are putting more thought into this kind of thing.

Here’s my childfree experience. I gave up on having them after 6+ years in a will-he-won’t-he relationship, to be fair, he also didn’t want them until them. He reconsidered and I no longer want them, so we split up. Everybody in my family and friends group now no longer talks to me because I „failed“ as a woman, according to my brothers and parents. Not exactly Happy about these gender expectations, tbh.

I am coming from the POV of being a teen mom. Of course my situation different from others. I am 26 now and I became a mom at 16. In all honesty I did not understand the true reality of having kids until I was 23 and had my second child. I was very responsible with taking care of my daughters immediate needs when she was baby (and small child) but my mom who has been my biggest supporter took on most of the financial responsibilities. She also still took care of me and my siblings. I didn’t have to worry about cooking the daily main meal or paying rent, childcare, car notes or insurance. My mom didn’t allow me work throughout the weekdays, only the weekends (if it would’ve been up to her she would’ve preferred me not work at all). She wanted me to focus on finishing high school and getting into college. My mom always told me “as long as you are working on your education, you don’t have to worry about anything else”. Of course I still cared for my child and bought the extra things she needed. But all the responsibilities of parenthood were not on me. It wasn’t until almost 8 years later when I had my son, and went from having one child who I shared responsibility with my mom with. Too having two kids in my care, in my own apartment. Even though I was with my partner (still am), he saw me as being the experienced one since I had already had a child, and relied on me for everything. It was very stressful and hectic. I I suffered a lot from PPD & PPA. Not only that but he was so used me making all the decisions for my daughter, that when we had our son he thought it’ll be same. It really took a of patience for us to be able to get into a good flow of this. But even still now. My son is 2 and needs to be potty trained before he’s 3 (so that he can start nursery school) & it feels like it’s my responsibility alone to potty train. My partner only sits him the toilet when I ask him too, my mom & mother in law (who help me when I’m working) don’t help at all. I work 9-5pm & am also taking night class to get my MSW. So I don’t have time to train him myself. It gets frustrating being a mom. Everything from making and taking to doctors appointments is my responsibility. Making sure they have everything need is my responsibility. While simultaneously trying to be a boss bitch & make sure I can obtain my career for myself and also to be able to provide better for my children. It gets so overwhelming and stressful. I don’t regret or resent my children but I understand how women, who are unsupported and financially unstable can feel this way. I recently made the decision to get my tubes tied, due to not wanting to accidentally get pregnant. I’m happy and can mange the two children I already have. I don’t want to put myself in a situation where I would have to get an abortion. & I also don’t want a third child in 5 years when I’m more finally stable. I just want to be able to care for my two kids and MYSELF comfortably.

It sounds like your men needs to step up and help out more. He sounds so useless, there's no reason you have to be so stressed out when your partner is there and can help with everything as well. I have heard so many stories like this before eventually the women gets tired and fed up and just divorces the useless man.
