I have a toddler and he is the best thing that ever happened to me. I say this because having a son, is the first time in my life I realize there is something I love more than I love myself. Yes you hear the complains, because we parents love to complain about parenting. It is the common ground and one thing all parents share. Also, there are moments when you realize all the suffering is worth it.
With respect to Zoom. We humans are crazy. We expect perfection etc, which truly doesn’t exist. We do not want to be interrupted in our meetings because expectations were set to be perfect. But truly, the minute or two interruption doesn’t take anything away from us. Some of us lose their chain of thoughts, hence why we document. Humans are meant to be connected, yet we crave isolation. In situations we need isolation, we begin to crave connections. Toddlers are the most beautiful/adorable beings, they piss you off, but you know they aren’t trained to do so. Yet, they still do. You see the innocence, yet you still get mad. Lol. Its just beautiful.
Ask any parent (of sane well-behaved kids) if they are willing to stay apart from their kids for a long period. The minute our kids are away, we lose our shits. We miss them, we want them back. The minute they are back and on our nerves, we want a break. That is the beauty of parenting 😃
Just how some of us hate airports, but can’t stay away from an airport for two months. Lol. Hang in there, covid is driving everyone nuts.
A1 - Then you are in the wrong industry and you are torturing yourself. Lol
Honestly I have a fifteen month old boy, in a 30 year old dad, and it’s the greatest thing that has ever happened to me. The connection I feel to my son is unmatched to anything I’ve ever felt in this life. I felt like all I ever heard was the negative too and that must just be because people vent about the hard stuff more than the good stuff. Because I’d say it’s like 90/10 of absolutely amazing/tough times
They’re fascinating little creatures. How quickly they develop from laying like broccoli to fully on movement is crazy. And they love you more than anything. And not in a puppy who loves everyone kind of way.
It’s not so bad, yes dealing with work and the every day responsibilities can be stressful and overwhelming, but children are one of the best things that can happen to anybody. They make you a better person, more responsible, more loving, caring, generous, and happy. I enjoy my kids so much! It gets better- hang in there

I am brought to tears by shear joy and happiness and awe multiple times a month because of my toddler, and I was nottt a crier before kid. Its absolutely the most beautiful and fascinating experience imaginable- just an indescribable connection and love.
Before having kids i was on the fence about having them. I knew life could be good and fulfilling without them. Now that I am a parent, i feel that life is more fulfilling than it could ever have been without them. What I mean by that is that if i had never had kids and never known this feeling, I would have been content and happy. But now that I have had this feeling / experience, I would never want to go through life without it.
Things I enjoy about parenting: the connections with my son and with my husband. My husband and i can just look at each other and melt together as our son doing something new or sweet.
The proof that my husband and i are a serious team and can handle so much and still be strong: from the daily struggles that come with parenting and running a household to our son being hit by a car and being in a cast for a month.
The moments like my 1.5 yr old focusing so hard on legos and suddenly standing up, walking over to me, putting his tiny hands on my cheeks and pulling me in for a kiss.
Learning about and seeing the growth that the human body and brain goes through from a new perspective.
Helping guide someone to be a good person and care about others and society.
Cuddles. Oh the cuddles. Even just a quick moment where they lean on you for a second and then run away is like a drug.
Ugh i could talk forever about all the things i love about being a parent. The good definitely outweighs the bad.
Two boys - 3 & 8 and they are the best things that ever happened to us. Watching them learn things and grow is our greatest joy. It's just a blast to witness. Yes they frustrate the hell out of us (looking at you, potty training!) But I learned after the first kid that the bad parts will pass and to enjoy it all. We still get to do the things we did before kids, just not as often which is totally fine.
I think it’s all about phases. I loved the newborn / baby phase. Toddlerhood sucked. He’s five and very fun now and I expect elementary school to be a lot of fun.
It’s exhausting and exhilarating. I have two boys and I love them more than anything. Being quarantined with them while working full time has been very hard and completely atypical! Usually we’re out and about at breweries and restaurants and hanging out with friends with kids.
I used to hate when people said this (and still do a little) but you will never experience a love like how you love your child. It’s amazing and raw and intense. I love my husband dearly and we’ve been together for 10 years but compared to my kiddos, not even close.

It's fantastic. I have a little guy who mimics things I and my wife say, who is starting to have his own opinions and interprets things he sees. He makes jokes and is charming and funny. He runs around the house like a maniac, climbs trees, says weird shit, makes poop jokes. At bedtime he cuddles up and tells me he loves me and tells me all about the things he liked and didn't like in his day. I have a younger one who just started to walk and is excited every day about new stuff. He's just learning to talk too.
It's incredibly hard and stressful but it's the best.

My kid has made my highs higher and my lows lower. I had an amazing life pre-baby but after having a child, I feel a deeper sense of joy than I did before. Its also more stable - I go through life now with a sense of contentment. My family is my rock.
I think one of the best parts of being a parent is knowing some part of you will survive once you die. No matter your religion or creed, these creatures that are literally half you and have been raised by you - hopefully with the wisdom and knowledge you've gained over your lifetime and passed on to them successfully - will go on and pass that to the next generation, and you'll effectively live forever.
It's also the reason I love mentoring, because while your blood may not live on the wisdom and knowledge you pass on gives your life a sense of purpose.
That's all in addition to getting to watch them grow like an awesome participatory TV show. Sometimes it's a comedy, sometimes it's a drama, sometimes it's action, sometimes a tearjerker. I can tell you there's no other feeling like when they come to you, look you in the eye, tell you they love you, and give you a giant hug.
4 kids here and I love every day with them.
1 from birth and 3 by choice.
I’ve seen them grow and make independent choices that I know I’ve helped shape or influence. When those choices look like love or empathy or are ultimately good for the earth and people around them, I’m intensely proud.
We are raising humans to make better choices and have a better life than we had. Yes their snuggles brighten my day but knowing I’m helping them be the very best version of themselves Is what motivates me every day to try and be the best parent I can be. Every once in a while I get annoyed, but for the most part, I need to be at my best for them. I love the whole concept, and each one of these incredible, amazing, loving children.
