The decision to become a parent is one of the most impactful choices we can make in life. As we become increasingly conscious of how we live our lives, many individuals are taking a closer look at how having children fits into their personal goals and values.
Since family planning decisions are so personal, it is easy to be internally conflicted. Besides our own thoughts and emotions, there are so many voices from family/social expectations, global issues, and low birthrate reports congregating in our mind.
It is also not a simple matter of whether or not we want children, but where we are varies depending on factors like readiness, personal values and the realities of parenthood. It is common to have questions like:
How does having children fit into my life?
Am I truly ready?
What if I don't want children?
How is it really like to be a parent? Can I be a good parent?
Who should I have children with?

We are here to provide a dedicated space where you can explore your feelings and thoughts about parenthood. Even to have a space to talk honestly and freely can provide some valuable insight.
