Why parenting is very hard

WHAT THEY FORGOT TO TELL YOU ABOUT HAVING CHILDREN

Having children is awful. “Oh, it’s the most precious experience there is!”

Stop the B.S.

A) A one-foot-tall brand new U.S. citizen suddenly moves into your house and you are FORCED to child-proof every object in your life.

B) This one-foot-tall U.S. citizen (and what did she even do to deserve that passport?) doesn’t speak English and yet DEMANDS you understand her 24 hours a day.

Am I psychic? No. Tough!

C) This new roommate you are forced to tolerate cries all the time.

Cries and screams and SCREAMS. You. Can. Not. Shut. Her. Up.

D) If you try to kick her out, the government shows you her 18-year lease that you CANNOT BREAK!

I used to tape lists of seven-letter Scrabble words to my kid’s stroller at 2 a.m. and would have to run for two hours because it was the only way to get that screaming PoS to sleep.

But at least I would get better at Scrabble. “ETESIAN!”

E) This new roommate that you are required to love shits on the floor or shits in her weird plastic pants and expects you to clean it. She will cry for 24 straight hours if you don’t clean it.

If you don’t clean it, she dies.

F) You are expected to feed your new roommate at erratic times all day long and they have less motor control then than someone with no arms and no legs.

G) 24 hours a day, seven days a week, you are required to make sure this one-foot-tall human doesn’t kill themselves by mistake. If they do, then you will go to jail.

H) You have to touch their dirty sh*t-covered genitals when you clean them. Oh yeah, you have to clean them. A lot.

I) At night (if you are a man), your new roommate climbs in bed with the love of your life and sucks on her breasts.

If they were a normal roommate you might kick them out of your house at that point. But then you go to jail.

J) You and your spouse have gone from being “lovers” to being “parents.”

It’s the funnest thing in the world to be a lover. You can watch Game of Thrones all night. You can daydream. You can spend four hours at a bookstore.

Being a parent is about preventing death.

K) Your kid always wants to go to the beach.

You used to go to the beach and look at the ocean and think about how wonderful the planet is. Then read a thick, stupid novel.

Now you go to the beach and all you are allowed to do is prevent this tiny beast from drowning.

L) You have no idea if this one-foot-tall person will turn into someone you like or hate when they are five feet tall.

M) Dance recitals. Hundreds and hundreds of dance recitals with the other 50 million daughters on the planet in line before your daughter’s three seconds.

N) They want dogs. Dogs are similar to babies (sh*tting, crying, needing, puking, etc.) but smarter.

I have two daughters and three stepchildren and one dog.

They are the loves of my life.

Parenting isn't hard. It just requires responsibility.

[Striker1s]

Your list seems like the list of the most awful thing you can ever have. Are you serious? The baby is the greatest gift God can give you. It is a little planet with it's universe inside. Everything you have to do is love and care. I would never say such horrible things about my baby. Moreover, know I bought him a new Baby Jogger Stroller . I make my baby smile, not cry and the other stuff you mentioned.

I agree with you. By the way, how much did you spend on this Jogger?

I also think that parenting is the most difficult, but important work, from which you can't get out of it, if you have already decided to have a child. I really liked what Prince Albert II said about his twin paternity. In this article https://www.monaco-tribune.com/en/20...a-and-jacques/, you can read about it. I really agree with this person and I'm very glad that there are so many responsible and conscientious parents!

Parenting is undoubtedly one of life's toughest gigs, and finding the right balance can be a real challenge. That's why I'm all about efficiency, especially when it comes to my kids' health. I've found a game-changer in https://www.bidrx.com/home/ailment_d...AZELASTINE-HCL where I can easily find the best vitamins and medications for my family's needs, all while saving precious time. It's been a lifesaver in navigating the parenthood journey!
