I don't think it's suggesting that at all.
Even if you yourself (and your spouse) come first, you can treat your kids nicely or poorly. And often it's because we don't think about the impact that we treat our kids poorly. And often when we take the time to think through our interactions, we find them more fulfilling.
And really, we should have kids as a higher priority - probably higher than errands.
- sokoloff 10y agoFor many parents, those "errands" are often focused on providing shelter and sustenance for the kids. Get the kids to daycare or school, get to first job, pick up the kids, get to the grocery, cook food, put the kids to bed, maybe work a second or side job. Sure, some errands are optional, but many are directly related to the daily grind of keeping the roof, food, and heat provided for.
