I Tried to “Fix” My Daughter’s Life — But Ended Up Ruining My Own

I’m 43. My daughter, 23, chose a childfree life — and even got sterilized.

In our family, motherhood is tradition. I couldn’t accept her decision. So I made a shocking choice: I got pregnant through artificial insemination, believing that once she held a baby, she’d change her mind.

When I introduced my newborn to her, she just whispered, “Mom… what have you done?”

Now she barely speaks to me. I wanted to protect our family legacy — but I may have destroyed my relationship with my only child.

Was I wrong? 💬
