Is Parenting Right For Me?
When you think about parenting, you might feel anxious or worried or be full of questions. This is all understandable. But it’s important to know that no one feels prepared to parent. Even the most prepared individuals are often taken off guard regarding parenting.
If you’re wondering whether parenting is right for you, it can help to ask yourself the following questions:
- What might my life look like if I choose to parent?
- How might I feel if I decide not to parent?
- What parenting role models can I look to for advice? (If not in your personal life, do you have role models online, at work, at school, etc.?)
When deciding whether parenting is right for you, it’s also important to consider your support network. Does your family or partner support your decision? If they’re not supportive, this can make you feel isolated and alone.
However, just because they aren’t supportive right now doesn’t mean they won’t eventually become supportive.
If you don’t have your family or partner’s support, other support systems can help you succeed personally and as a parent. At Peak Women’s Care, we’re here for you.
