[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The point is parenthood is a job in itself, add a career/job to it and it is stress fest. Few people with 2 jobs are enjoying their life. They struggle.[/quote]
very true.  I was just thinking this morning how I would love sah spouse who handled all the house/kids stuff, and I could just focus on work. If I could do that, I'd be so much happier and probably make more money,too.

Fascinating reading this during COVID. We have had no childcare since March. And we thought it was tough before. Ha.

One thing that stands out to me in the comments — Gen X angst coming from high expectations of self and life. Bang on. Our generation expected so much idealistic mumbo jumbo from ourselves and the world. It is funny because of course you are going to feel lost if that’s your mode of coping with reality — denial. Bringing me right back to Winona Ryder in reality bites mode! LOL
