I think 7daysatsea has it right.
This can't be a woman who is too caring, because of the line "And I'm gonna tell my son to join a circus so that death is cheap and games are just another way of life."
She is already foreseeing her son's death as cheap and saying that life is game.
Perhaps the conception of the son was not pleasant, the idea of a child is not comforting.
