>I think it is impossible to understand how much additional stress and anxiety being a parent of small children bring without being in that position.
I have to disagree and I'm a father. I think it's exactly like in the book "the happiness advantage", some people will see the positive and use it as possibility to grow and to get more productive.
On the other hand, People who focus on the negative and didn't learn to cope with stress will have problems in every high stress environment no matter the circumstances.
no matter the crap life throws at them some people simply march forward and this is the mindset you need - and not a break, which will only get you right back where you were.
