[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you’re wealthy send them to summer-long sleepaway camps, junior boarding school & then boarding school[/quote] Sad “solution”[/quote] There's a middle ground that allows parents with lower capacity for the rougher parents of parenthood to recharge. Be strict about bedtimes and wake times, do weekly date nights, maintain your career, lean on grandparents if they're involved, have hobbies and friends. This is what I do (also stopped at one because I could sense that parenting was not going to be a strength for me). I love my child and don't regret having a kid but it is 100% harder than I expected, partly due to forces outside my control (pandemic, hello)[/quote]
