[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP,

As a mom of two, I completely get your POV as well as the POV of the parents on this thread.

Everything that OP has said is true. Child rearing is hellishly exhausting and never-ending. It sucks up all your "me" time until you feel like a Zombie.  Everything you think is tough about parenting is TRUE.

On the other hand, no one can explain how HUGE the little moments of joy is when your newborn smiles at you! The rewards of raising your kid is so immense that you cannot explain it to anyone. It has to be experienced.

My advice to newlyweds is - don't be in a hurry to procreate. and don't have a baby if your marriage is shaky.

In the end, parents raise their children because it brings them happiness, otherwise parents would abandon their children after the first few sleepless nights.  Nature wires us to love our children and find satisfaction in raising them, above most other pleasurable activities.
