Regretful Parents: "Having Kids Destroyed My Wife's Sex Drive" | Reddit Stories

Welcome back our Regretful Parents series! In this episode, Erika and Kristen react to a viral Reddit post from a parent who openly regrets having kids — and his reasons why will make your jaw drop. From religious guilt and peer pressure to capitalism and walkable cities, this conversation breaks down why so many parents are speaking out about regret, exhaustion, and the myth of “the village.”

We dive into:
  • The viral Reddit post titled “For the ones lurking and seeking answers”
  • Why some people regret having kids — and what they wish they’d known
  • The impact of religion, social pressure, and capitalism on family planning
  • The myth of “it takes a village” and what parents actually need: money, services, and walkable cities
  • Why billionaires and late-stage capitalism are part of the parenting crisis
