[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Having small kids and taking care of them is the most isolating and tiring experience even when there is no pandemic. People need to also understand that having more than 1 or 2 kids is not easy. No one owes the raising of your kids to you. The parents have to raise them. If they are lucky they will have paid or unpaid caregivers at various times but it is not a guarantee. If you cannot do it on your own and do it well then don't have kids. [/quote] Oh shut up. [/quote] This poster isn’t wrong though…when the going gets tough, raising kids is entirely on the parents.[/quote] Yeah. I'm amused at all the parents who deliberately had kids back-to-back every 2 years or less and then ended up with 3-5 kids who outnumbered them. The only 'plan' you had was for society to raise and care for your kid 80% of the time. No wonder you were overwhelmed. [/quote] +100 I watched SAHMs with 3+ kids pull their hair out and wondered - what was your plan? You would only see them a few hours a day because they would be in daycare/school? Some women I know got pregnant during the pandemic and look depressed now. But why do they keep making bad choices?[/quote] This is my friend who is complaining non-stop about her newborn, no sleep, high costs for diapers/essentials, and how hard it is. Well...yeah, I mean that's what you signed up for.[/quote]
