I love babies and when I was in my mujhe shaadi karni hai phase, I thought I can take care of them because they're super cute..usse aage socha hi nahi.
But now when I have a lot of time on hand and I don't have my rose tinted glasses on..I've realized that I know nothing about raising kids. I can hardly take care of myself..main kya bacche ko sambhalungi.
And it's so scary that life could have taken me in another direction and I would have been married and had a kid by now. 2 decisions that I now know that I definitely would have regretted. I can end the marriage but my poor imaginary kid would have been a lifetime responsibility..
I don't think people really think through these things. Everybody is not meant to be a parent. I would rather not be a parent than be a bad parent.
