My mom constantly told me I was a mistake... that I should have been aborted. We were poor, miserable, and despite me trying my best, she never seemed happy with me.

After that, I vowed I would NEVER have a kid. I made her so miserable. I'm open to fostering, but I'd never bring a whole, new human into this world.
