Raising children is challenging obviously, and requires a great deal of sacrifice and compromise. It is certainly understandable that a lot of people, while in the seemingly endless position of having to run their kids around everywhere, would feel a degree or regret or remorse.
But I wonder how many of those people continue to feel that way as their children grow up and become adults and the relationship matures. Also, grandparenting.
Raising kids is hard. But having a family is well worth it, IMO.
(I respect other life choices as well)
