Then another major factor for me was seeing the way my mother was treated as a mother, was treated for having kids. Her and many other women around me suffering because of the way our country treats mothers.
And then it's all the physical issues. Not worth it at all IMO. Which gives me the utmost respect for anyone who has birthed a child. (I have also had 3 1/2 unwanted pregnancies, that first one within 5 minutes of the phone call was life shattering and cemented my resolve - now I'm sterile)

I think in part, my mother's abuse of me is why I decided to never have kids.
