Parenting is work.
- xanaxagoras 5y agoParenting is not the kind of thing where you exchange your labor for money. It's not work in the sense that the parent comment meant it and you know that full well.

- wojciii 5y agoExactly. I know this now. I didn't before I had children. Some parenting is fun but most is hard unforgiving work that might or might not reward you in the future.
- makapuf 5y agoThe thing is it's not rewarding in the future, knowing you do hard work for a small being that you love was the reward for me.
