I love my kid, but the time suck is real.

I get about an hour and a half a day of free time, which I should probably be using to clean.

If we had shorter work days it would be far better, though we bid up housing prices using loose monetary policy so that's not happening. Most people aged to procreate are funding boomers poor retirement planning.

eg, thier medicaire/caid. you would have to be very poor to use medicaid. the most chronic conditions people have on medicare, is DIABETES TYPE 2, AND comorbidities.

while i was at a uni library, i overheard these 2 barely 20 something woman(assumed they were 18-19 by the way they were talking), talking about having kids at 25-30, where you going to have kids if you dont have a career yet, and you are barely an adult right now.

when i was HS, a mother waited too long to change his sons way (future direction) she would often come in during his classes and moniter his classwork for any lowering grade, and would chatised the class "your parents would care this much if they care about his son", i was thinking, "this bitch, you waited 4years too long to change him, he was dead set on not going to college, when he told us". shouldve done it before he was in HS, and not waited til he was about to graduate with a low or participation passing gpa(like many people in the hs at the time).(i havnt kept track of him, only saw him once when i was IN CC)
