[quote=Anonymous]I’m only 10 years into parenting, but if you gave up your life, that’s on you. How about raising children that turn into adults you would choose to be friends with if they weren’t your kids? Or being the type of parent your kids want to spend time with? My spouse and I both look forward to and enjoy spending time with our parents. Both of us grew up with parents who had careers, hobbies, and friends they had more in common with than similar aged children - but were still engaged, involved and loving parents. We are doing our best to do the same. My kids will grow up and move away - but my spouse and I will continue having a life independent of them. My kids don’t owe me entertainment or adoration, but hopefully they’ll want to hang out once in a while. [/quote]
