Stigma against lack of maternal feelings

Re: Stigma against lack of maternal feelings

Hmmm… and I thought it was the males who experienced the apprehension and loss of control over having kids. I can understand if the feeling stems from some logical prudence about your economic status and genuine concern for a family’s well being, but not to want kids at all is something that seems rather unusual.

I for one have always been excited about kids… I think about raising my own all the time – ideally I’d wanna have a boy and a girl :slight_smile: and I can’t wait to give them everything I’ve got… I think about tucking my daughter in bed at nights and read her a bedtime story… I think about waking up early mornings and taking my boy to hockey practice :slight_smile: but yes before all that happens, there’ll be quite a few sleepless nights. :blush:
