          What does ‘awful’ mean here? Are you trying to say that they’re perhaps the responsibility with the highest degree of difficulty you’ll ever do, which is reasonable (but should be expressed differently)? That at times they don’t know morality and prosociality too well… as if they didn’t just come out of the oven? Or that they’re all chilling in Epstein’s Island/part of Project 2025?

      Kids are fantastic when you have time to care for them and a nightmare when you don’t.

      I’ve spent twenty years in my profession and four years as a parent. There are plenty of days I wake up and think about my job and question my life choices. Never been a minute when I’ve regretted bringing kids into my home and making their lives as happy and fun as I can manage.
