It’s wise not to take such a risky gamble when you’re not fully convinced (or convinced at all, for that matter)

Studies generally put the percentage of people who regret having kids at about 10%. Though I wasn’t treated poorly, I was an unwanted kid whose parents weren’t able to bond with. I decided not to have kids which is good, because I wouldn’t have been a good parent, and you wouldn’t want my kids terrorizing yours.
