[quote=Anonymous]I have ONE and only one kid with an easygoing temperament. Some of it is nature; some is nurture. I have tried to train her to be easy, communicative, self-sufficient in an age appropriate way, and calm. E.g. trained to try different foods, pick up after herself, etc. I have a great career and so does DH, but our hours are not long and are somewhat flexible. We are at different stages in our careers and I think that helps. If we were peers, it might feel like we were competing - whose work is more important to prioritize, etc. I have parents who help, although they're a bit of a drive away. I have enough $$ to afford full-time daycare with some additional babysitting each week. I make the choice to prioritize fitness and romance/couple time as necessities, not luxuries.[/quote]
