[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Boyfriend has a 3 year old - splits custody 50/50 with his narcissist ex gf. The kid throws tantrums all the time, talks back, and generally thinks the world revolves around him. Serious question - why did any of you have children and do you regret it? Because I legit do not understand what the benefits are. Please don't crucify me lol[/quote]

Lol. My 3 year old can be challenging at times, but this morning she gave me three hugs while I dropped her off at school and told me the third one was to take home and give to daddy. She rarely has meltdowns anymore and when she does, we don't have much trouble riding them out and figuring out what's really going on. She's a joyful, empathetic, kind, emotive small person and the light of my life.

Kids are like pretty much everything else worthwhile in life -- you get out what you put in. I feel bad for your boyfriend's son, that he seems to have so many selfish adults in his life who view him has a burden and inconvenience and don't support him the way he needs to learn out to emotionally regulate. Small children deserve to have their immediate world (their parents) revolve around them somewhat. Your BF and his ex brought that child into he world and HE IS 3 and is not getting the attention and help he needs. No wonder he melts down all the time and demands attention. That poor child. Tell your BF to step up and start parenting and maybe excuse yourself from the situation if you don't want to be around a small kid. Because it's not that kid's fault he exists. Go find someone who isn't a dad if that's your MO.[/quote]
