Two Under Two is Easier, Only Children Are Lonely & Other Myths We're Done With

Lauren Martin & Words of Women Season 1 Episode 8

Only children are weird. It's selfish to have an only child. Only children are lonely. There's so much pressure...To be a woman. To be a mom. To have a kid. Then to have another kid. Because you can't just have ONE KID. It's selfish to have an only child. But is it? I speak to two mothers who have (by choice and not) to have only children. Are they happy? Are theirs kids happy? Do they feel guilty? Are only children lonely? Is it so bad to have an only child or is this another myth we're just following at the expense of our mental and physical health? Topics include: IVF, mental health, motherhood and siblings. Thank you to the amazing mothers and women I spoke to for this episode. You know who you are.
