Does parenting feel impossible right now? Maybe you don’t feel financially stable, or perhaps you don’t have the family support you desire. While this is all understandable, the number one question that can help you determine if parenting is right for you is this: Do you have the heart and desire to parent? If so, then parenting might be the right choice for you.
While circumstances can make you feel like parenting is out of the question, it’s vital to remember that circumstances change. By taking small steps in the right direction, you can gain financial stability and make meaningful connections that can provide critical parenting support.
Is Parenting Right for Me?
If you have even the smallest desire to parent, then it’s important to fully explore this option and learn about all the support that’s available to help you succeed.
While only you can decide if parenting is the right choice for you, asking yourself the following questions can help:
- What are my biggest concerns when it comes to parenting?
- What is preventing me from wanting to parent?
- What might my life look like if I choose parenting?
- How might I feel if I choose parenting?
- How might I feel if I don’t choose parenting?
