Chelsea Handler and Rosie O'Donnell

"I was so delusional," Handler, 36, recalled during an interview on The Rosie Show earlier this week. "I was like, I'm ready for a baby."
But while Handler was enthused about the idea of becoming a teen mom, it was actually her parents who convinced her to abort the pregnancy, she told Rosie O'Donnell.
"I was trying to argue with them and they were like, 'You don't understand," Handler explained. "'You're throwing your entire life away. You're not having a child right now. This is not what our family's about. You know, you're supposed to create a life for yourself, and we want you to enjoy your life and not be raising a child. And we're certainly not going to raise it for you.' "
Now, Handler, who said in 2007 that she didn't see kids in her immediate future, believes it was the right decision.
"I wouldn't be a good mother," she said. "I have no regret at all."
