Also, parents are stressed because life is stressful. Children present a fixed economic cost. Every month you gotta meet rent, and all of that. And you are lose TIME FREEDOM. In those ways, worst of both worlds. You're broke and can't do what you want.

Children required PATIENCE. But people are f-cking addicts - Addicted to phones - Addicted to food - Addicted to weed, entertainment Everything is prime shipping. Modern life hard wires us away from the most important parenting skill. Patience.

Children test your patience, and most adults aren't prepared to handle this. Look at how people freak out over the stupidest shit in real life, and the stuff people cry about. How can they handle a child's tantrum?

Most Americans aren't mentally or physically prepared to have children. They haven't "grown up" themselves. Hence their misery. However as someone who has done it all and YOLO's hard, I love it. Too many daily joys to count. But know that your life WILL change and HOW it will.

P.S. Most men have a mid-life crisis because they (delusional) believe they could have had a different path. Like they woulda been Cobra Tate if they had wanted. There is a lot of media pressure on women to "settle," and that's actually not bad advice, but also true for men!

Mike, addiction has been their M.O. ever since they took over. This is not by accident.

Love this thread. We didn't have children until we were older. I was 39/wife was 43. We both got married late in life, only marriage for both of us. I think having kids later, for me, makes me a better parent. However, I've known people who had kids early and being great parents.

I would have said “attention” but it’s the same thing. Each patenting isdue is always solved by attention. Pay attention as much as needed, don’t escape ir.

People don't realize that parenting is the most important job they will ever have in life. You're not only affecting that child you're affecting every single person who comes in contact with that child for the rest of their life

Whenever I read a news story about a kid getting beaten to death by the mom’s boyfriend, it’s almost always because the kid interrupted his video game somehow. I’ve heard CPS officials say the same thing.

That tells what kind of mother the child has to allow it to continue.
