Our DD tells us that she doesn't want another child. She's an amazing mum. He's a sweet toddler. She's one of three and the other two don't have kids. I feel like my children are turning their back on the best thing in the world. ?

Unfortunately it’s not up to you, maybe she had a traumatic birth? I’m sure you saying things like “you’re turning your back on motherhood” doesn’t help much, I’ve learned by pushing they only run further, you need to accept her and her choices, or you may lose them all together

It’s one of the most responsible things for the future of the planet anyone can do. If I’d known then what I know now, I’d have had one child, not two.
