i don’t want kids but i want to want them. i think it can be such a beautiful experience but idk how to stop thinking about the negatives that come with it. my sister just had a baby and she loves her so much but her life is already so different

I have this exact same thinking process I want one so badly. But then I feel selfish to think of how bad the world is and I always wonder if I could even bring one into the world with how expensive stuff is…atp is it even worth it?

yeah realistically i think im kinda leaning towards this. the thought of having a child is beautiful but the reality doesnt measure up tbh

if we didn’t live in an individualist, capitalist society that didn’t hate and punish parents and was actually addressing the climate crisis i would probably have a different opinion. it was very sad to realize the reality bc i always envisioned being a mom. it shouldn’t be this hard and it’s not meant to be 😢
