You're not wrong, but the "couple percent of your lifetime" high stress period is still long enough to irreparably damage relationships. Not everybody enjoys time with their kids, either. I'm truly glad you do, but that isn't universal. There's such a huge spectrum of experiences for parents. Listening to the experience of others in our post natal groups was really interesting for that reason. Some people just get it so easy, and some people seem to be living nightmares. There's no real rhyme or reason to it.
