[quote=Anonymous]Some things get easier, others get harder. In that way, it's no different than parenting in general. The logistics of three are more than with one or two, yes, but you can also set limits around activities. Also, much of the perceived difficulty varies depending on the given family. Some parents have a ton of physical energy and don't find the little years that tough, but struggle with the emotional/social support with teens. For others, it's the opposite. Some parents have a harder time setting boundaries (or don't want to) around activities, etc., and run themselves ragged. Some kids were such horrible sleepers as young kids that even the teen years feel less difficult, because parents are more-rested. So many permutations. It's a marathon, so pace yourself.
