[quote=Anonymous]People who are looking BACK on parenting have a perspective that young parents do not. They are not being patronizing. They are being wistful. Perhaps it is a fool's errand to think they can help you see what they see, from their vantage point in life. But they are usually trying to encourage you to savor the moments (of joy and closeness) while they last. They know, better than you do, how hard parenting is. But they still miss it to their cores. That is what they are trying to help you understand. If that traumatizes you, well, toughen up because it is how life works. [/quote]
