Less than a year later, when Mila was just 18, she married her partner.
Mila shared that she became pregnant three months after getting married, welcoming her first child, a son, at the age of 19.
Shortly after, Mila became pregnant again at 20, giving birth to her second son when she was just 21.
Two years later, at 23, she became pregnant for the third time and gave birth the following year, at 24, to her third child.
Another two years later, at 26, Mila discovered she was expecting again.
She then had her fourth child — another boy — at the age of 27.
Her family continued to grow when, at 29, Mila found out she was having her fifth child.
After giving birth at 30, she learned at 32 that she would have a sixth child, this time a baby girl.
At 33, Mila welcomed her sixth child, and now, three years later, she remarked, “I’m 36 now, do you think we are done?”
Posting on social media, Mila reflected on her journey and expressed her “mourning” over the possibility of not having more children.
The mother of six wrote: “Sometimes, though, there’s a quiet sadness that catches me off guard. I know deep down that I don’t plan to get pregnant anymore, and that chapter of my life is gently closing.
“There’s gratitude... so much gratitude for the children I’ve been blessed with, for the seasons I’ve lived through, for the bodies that carried life again and again.”

“Still, saying ‘this is the last time’ to something so sacred feels heavier than I expected.
“It’s not regret. It’s mourning, the tender kind, for a season that shaped me, stretched me, and filled me in ways nothing else ever could.”

Here are some widely recognized methods:
Authoritative Parenting
This approach often fosters independence, self-discipline, and high self-esteem in children. It is generally considered the most effective, as parents set clear expectations and enforce rules while also providing warmth and support.
Authoritarian Parenting
This style is the opposite of authoritative parenting, where parents set high demands but are low on responsiveness. It emphasizes obedience and often employs punitive measures. While this can lead to disciplined behavior, it may also result in lower self-esteem and social skills in children.
Permissive Parenting
Permissive parents tend to be indulgent and lenient, often acting more like friends than authority figures. They are highly responsive but lack demandingness, giving children a lot of freedom. This method can nurture creativity and a free-spirited nature but may also lead to poor self-regulation and difficulties with authority.
Uninvolved Parenting
Uninvolved or neglectful parenting is characterized by low responsiveness and low demands. Parents in this category provide minimal guidance, nurturing, or attention, often leaving children feeling neglected, which can significantly affect their emotional and social development.
Helicopter Parenting
Helicopter parents are extremely involved and overprotective, frequently micromanaging their children’s lives. Although their goal is to protect and support, this approach can hinder a child’s ability to develop independence and problem-solving skills.
Free-Range Parenting
Free-range parenting encourages children to explore and learn from their surroundings with minimal parental interference. This method promotes independence and resilience but requires a safe and supportive environment to succeed.
