Two things can be true at the same time. My kid is killing me; my mind isn't what it once was, my personal free time has withered away to almost nothing and I now get to experience the soul-rending terror of worrying about what might happen to her.

On the other hand, she's the best thing that's ever happened to me. I get to experience joy that I didn't know was possible before she was born.

So definitely DON'T have kids if you're not prepared to pay the personal, mental, physical, emotional, and financial costs associated. But if you go into it with your eyes open, then it's more than worth the price of admission.

To anyone wondering, this is the most honest review you're going to get. It's just as bad as everyone says and then some. It's absolutely worth every bit of it. The fact that people are telling you it's that rough and still recommending it should tell you something.

"10/10 would blend my balls again" Should be all you need to hear.
