Hey dad, did having a newborn make you bitter towards your parents? (programming.dev)

I just had a kid of my own and I’m finding some feelings of resentment towards mom.

Like, there were some times where I didn’t receive the supervision I needed, or where I wasn’t taught certain life skills (because she was so busy with my siblings) and I just can’t imagine letting that happen with my baby.

Did you ever feel this way towards your parents when you had me? If so, how did you deal with it?

Thanks Pop.

I think this is just it. I wonder if we’ve matured in a way that our parents didn’t. I really hope it’s not the other case: that we’ll get more selfish as we get older.
