All about them – Maternal regret exists, let's talk about it!

Sometimes some mothers think they would be better off without children.

This week in Everything about themwe wanted to talk to you about maternal regret, a subject which is modestly beginning to enter the public debate. Some mothers, courageously, say that they regret having had children. It is a word that is difficult to understand, because it is complex. Often, these are women who love their child, but realize that they would have preferred not to have one. In other cases, they experienced a breakdown in their connection.

Don’t hesitate to also listen to our different episodes on postpartum and postpartum depression.

Anna Roy has been a midwife for more than ten years, a columnist for “Maternelles” and author of around fifteen popular science works on women's health, that of the young, the old, teenagers, and mothers. The podcast Everything about them is a way to share the academic knowledge she acquired and the knowledge she received from the women she crossed paths with. And when a subject is less familiar to him, Everything about them don't hesitate to hand over the microphone to other specialists.

Everything about them is a podcast by Anna Roy, hosted by Nina Pareja, produced by Slate Podcasts.
