Researchers at Kaoshiung Medical University, Taiwan looked at data of 1,292,462 women over 20 years and found that motherhood has a protective effect and cuts the chance of a woman killing herself. The risks fall further the more children a woman has, they discovered.
Motherhood raises a woman's self esteem and the more children she has, the lower the risk of committing suicide.
What are your views my fellow mylotters?

I think this is just normal. I think the reason why theres even more less risk if you have more children is because you always have a little one to take care of. Little kids are the hardest to live since you know they can't take care of themselves and needs constant guidance.
