- paulcole 6y agoYeah and your original comment wasn't worth much. How do you know your work wouldn't have been better if you hadn't had kids? Maybe your definition of intense changed when you had kids?

Having a rough day, or are you usually this unkind? > How do you know your work wouldn't have been better if you hadn't had kids? Still waiting for my time machine to arrive, but in the absence of that, I can state that I believe my work is better because of having kids. When I felt like I had a less bounded quantity of free time, I was more inclined to squander it. Once kids made it clear that my time is extremely limited, I experienced a much stronger motivation to get something productive out of the small time I had left. Also, the kids themselves are a motivation to make more out of my life so that I can provide for them better.
