Stories I've heard in the last year from my friends and co-workers:
Bragging about how they got 5 hours of sleep last night because their newborn finally slept until 6am
A "funny" story about how their 5 year old managed to get a hold of some chewing gum and got it stuck in their hair and all over a rug
A potty training "success" story about how their toddler remembered to pull down their pants, but remembered mid shit they should have sat on the toilet, so they shat all over the bathroom.
They found a juice box their kid bit a hole into and then tucked under their car seat... By smelling it rotting
Trojan just needs to get a group of parents together to tell stories about their kids and paste them word for word on the back of their boxes.
As someone about to be a parent for the first time in the next couple weeks, I'm starting to understand why parents are so enamored with those little stories.
I'm so excited about being able to raise a little girl and really want to be able to teach her everything. My wife and I will be able to experience the world in a completely new way because our child will have that excitement about everything that adults lose over time.
To each their own, I completely understand why someone wouldn't want kids, but I definitely think those stories are really the greatest things in the world to the parents. Because generally, a parent's kid is the best kid in the world to them.
thank you for telling us how good having a kid can be, when nost people just think of the bad that kids can bring to their parents life
But he doesn't have a kid yet, just an expectation.
I'm all for optimism, but always be aware that children might not meet your expectations. There's a family with 3 severely autistic kids, all of them need constant supervision and can't do anything themselves.
Be excited about kids, but also mindful that it is going to take a lot from your life.
I'm totally aware it's not all going to be perfect all the time, if ever, because that's not how life works.
But I definitely already feel unconditional love for the little thing. And I feel like it's giving my wife and I a different kind of purpose in life.
My mom told me once that the unconditional love is hard, especially when life gets difficult. But the proudness she feels and the fulfillment having kids brought to her life is indescribable.
It's not for everyone, but for those who enjoy it find more fulfillment than any singular other life pursuit could bring.
I love hearing all your positive attitude, and wish you all the best. I truly wish you have the best kid in the world, and I hope you both make each other the best version of yourselves. Have a good day.
This but unironically.
it was already unironical
