[quote=Anonymous]My dad would sometimes mutter, "damn kids, wish I never had any kids" so that clued me in. Not sure how old I was but he died when I was 12 so younger than that. My mom thought she liked being a parent, but in hindsight, I feel like she kind of checked out once we hit like 2nd grade. She loves babies, toddlers, little kids. I was the most boring teen in the world and didnt need a whole lot of parenting, but something would have been nice. Her main concern was that I not be fat so I guess I can probably give her credit for my college era eating disorder. DH had a similarly rudderless upbringing so we both went into parenting kind of clueless, but made sure our kids always felt loved and cared for, even if we weren't always perfect. [/quote]
