Do you think all women have a maternal instinct

[Lethalfind]

I have spoken with a couple of people, both men and women who had not had children during their child bearing years in preference for their career and lived to regret it. Then gotten to a certain age where technically medicine might be able to help them have a child but their not sure at their age they should.

What a sad place to be.

My daughter is the ONE person in the world I feel a real emotional tie to. I was adopted when I was only a couple days old. I don't feel that connection with the people who adopted me and unfortunately I don't feel it with my biological family that I was eventually able to find.

Before I had my daughter I felt very alone in the world not being tied to anyone. She means everything to me. I can't imagine nature being so cruel to let a woman be born without the drive to have a child and therefore be deprived of this feeling.

I don't think all women can have motherly instincts when they can harm their children. A female with motherly instincts could never harm her child and only wants to protect it.

What your saying is clear but lets set this group aside because they are clearly mentally unfit as mothers.

I'm talking about law abiding, reasonably sane people.

I believe some women do not have a maternal instinct, and they should not be nagged or bullied into doing something that is un-natural to them.
