It’s weird I’ve seen this thread. I don’t come on here often & I very rarely post. But this is something I’ve been thinking about over the last few months.
I have three kids, I had my first at 18 & my last at 22. Third wasn’t planned & we actually had a termination booked in, but we couldn’t go through with it.
I sometimes wish we had. It makes my heart hurt typing this. My third child is difficulT, my first two are a breeze. Third struggles with learning, temper, making friends & socialising, they are very immature for their age, they make every little thing 10 times harder than it should be & I don’t even think they are happy. They argue & fight with siblings constantly. I think there is more to it all but unfortunately we’ve struggled to get anyone to take us seriously as they can behave so nicely in front of others.
I have sleepless nights wondering if we made the wrong choice all those years ago. I struggle to see how they will live a ‘normal’ & happy life. & in very selfish terms I just think about how hard our life has been because of them & how much easier it would/could have been without them.
I love them, all of them & in some ways I love the third the most.
live is hard!!
