[QUOTE="IronSnake, post: 16566261, member: 46336"] I have a son. He's not a year old yet, and he was born during the height of the beginning of the pandemic. Everything we knew and expected to experience with his birth went out the window, and it was a lonely affair at the hospital. Just us three. But he arrived healthy and the delivery hospital hadn't had a positive COVID patient yet so we were safe. The stress of having a child during the pandemic is pretty high. And now the stress of having such a young son while simultaneously watching people tear each other to shreds is disconcerting. Again, all while enduring a pandemic. I'd be remiss saying we aren't stressed/concerned long term for his future. But from what I gather, that's just part of being a parent. If it wasn't politics or a pandemic, it would be something else. It's just part of wanting best for your child. So all things considered, no I don't regret it. And no, I don't think it's a bad time to have kids. Kids are the future, and if we want a better future, we need to make sure our children will be around to build it. [/QUOTE]
