The parents who regret having children

Having a child is supposed to be a life-affirming experience, if you follow popular logic.  But what if you hate it?There’s a growing movement promoting a “child-free lifestyle” - and some of its biggest proponents are parents, fed up with their offspring and wishing they'd taken a different path.In this week's episode of The i Podcast, we are joined by chief features writer Kasia Delgado, who has been talking to the parents who regret having children and the groups they have formed to share their experiences. We will also hear from the parents themselves about the taboo surrounding voicing these opinions and what they wish they had known before they took the plunge.Produced by Albert Evans and edited by Julia Webster.Music featured is by Michael Kobrin and Lexin Music - licensed via Pixabay.Check out their music here:https://pixabay.com/music/modern-classical-the-introvert-michael-kobrin-10959/https://pixabay.com/users/lexin_music-28841948/ Hosted on Acast.
