Regretful Parents: “I've Been Scammed” | Reddit Stories

In this episode, Kristen and Erika dive into another brutally honest story from the Regretful Parents series — this time from a 39-year-old single mother by choice who spent thousands on fertility treatment… and now says she feels trapped, broke, constantly sick, and deeply regretful.

If you’ve ever felt pressure from society, family, media, or your “biological clock” — this episode is for you.

We’re talking about:
  • The reality of being a single mom by choice
  • Fertility treatment expectations vs. reality
  • Postpartum depression & long-term mental health struggles
  • Why parents say “it’s worth it” (even when it’s not)
  • The myth of “you’ll have so much support”
  • Constant illness after daycare
  • Why society pushes women toward marriage & motherhood
  • Disney, fairy tales, and lifelong conditioning
  • Marriage propaganda & pronatalist culture
  • Why antidepressants are often recommended to struggling parents
  • And the uncomfortable truth: what if you simply don’t enjoy parenting?
