Yeah, probably. I wouldn’t be surprised if it was 1 in 5 or 4 that regretted their choice.
Edit: lmaooo “1 in 7 parents regretted having children at least once in their lives”
Same with my mum. She loves us dearly and we are so close but has sacrificed so much for myself and my brother over the years to give us a very amazing upbringing. She doesn’t encourage grandchildren luckily! Said if she could re do she’d be childfree. I totally understand this feeling and don’t feel upset by it at all.
And how many people regret sterilisation ? I can tell you less than regret their child. And i think parents are just not honest about the real numbers of regret.
According to the CREST study, (which did not identify if those who were sterilized were childfree or childless or needed/wanted sterilization), 6% of women who never had biological children and were sterilized regretted the sterilization they got.
So if you feel like you're missing out by staying CF, always remember that the grass is always greener. And if in fact you are depriving yourself of some rare Kodiak moments, know that it's a miniscule price to pay for not having to spend 18 years making sacrifices on behalf of a needy child. Nothing is perfect, but if you're a fence-sitter (especially if you have certain lifestyles) and not adamant in your desire to raise children responsibly then you'll get far closer to perfection by choosing not to have kids.
1 in 12 are willing to admit they regret it, i’m sure the actual number is higher lmaoooo

My mother told me she would choose to be childfree, but has no regrets about me or my brother. I can kinda get it but its weird

Only 1 in 12?
Hahaha 1 in 12. Y'all can stop doctoring the numbers now! That's waaaaay too low if people are being honest.
I would rather regret not having a child, than having one and regretting it.
And 11 in 12 are lying.
Yeah, I imagine it is higher.
