Sounds like the mother might have postpartum depression. I’ve had similar thoughts too, and I also suffer from depression.

With my first born I was fine, and enjoyed pretty much the whole experience (colic notwithstanding). But with my second born, it took me a while to feel good about having a second child. Turns out that is natural, but it never hurts to talk to someone about it.

Not everyone who lives hates their life. It’s fine to have children, if you do your best to take care of them. It’s also fine to not have children. You do you.

I can't imagine wishing living forever on someone.

I wonder if the original commenter hates her own mother for similar reasons.

Of all the things to regret or be concerned about children, mortality is the big one for her? Strange.

Good things aren't bad just because they don't last forever.

Immortality would literally drive us all mad.
