I see a lot of commentary, especially on Lemmy and Reddit, about how awful children are and how wonderful adulthood without kids is. And if you don’t want them, more power to you.
On the other hand, many people are parents and love having children! I want to hear some of the positive stories. What about being a parent makes your life better? What’s your favorite thing about your kids?
My son will start college in the fall, and will be studying actuarial math, which I had never even heard of before he told me his plan. My youngest has taught me all about Dandy’s World (a game she plays on Roblox) and a cartoon Survivor-like reality show called Battle for Dream Island. Not really something that I’d spend my own time on, but I’m hoping Book wins this season.
