[quote=Anonymous]Most women could never afford this, and if I could, I’d keep it pretty quiet. But it does not make you a bad parent. I tried to do it all myself with kid 1 and damn near lost my mind. For kids 2 and 3, I followed the LLL advice for safer cosleeping and did much better. Our zero risk approach to all parenting starting from birth is setting women up for mental health problems whether they work or stay home. Oh and the idea of taking your kids sledding is a product of the past thirty years. Kids used to sled on their own in independent playgroups. But now parents are expected to play the role of a child in constant entertainment of kids AND work a job AND perform all the household labor. Super realistic. We’re going to turn into South Korea. The dam will break eventually. [/quote]
