Do we have any real data on real-time parental happiness vs intentionally childless folks? reply

What do you mean by real-time here?

I beleive the prevailing studies are that parenthood is associated with less joy but more meaning in life compared with voluntary childlessness. (Involuntary childlessness is not associated with increased joy or meaning, and is more associated with increased loneliness)
