Not just that, but:
- how many kids do you have
- do they have disabilities
- do they go to daycare (aka how many hours are you directly responsible for them)
- do you pay for babysitting or have family nearby that can do that duty (aka how many hours are you directly responsible for them)
- what type of environment do you live in (can you let them run outside)
- do you do 100% of your cooking, cleaning, etc
- etc
In other words, there are so many factors at play here, but all the vitriol and high horse behavior typically doesn’t talk about that. In many ways, raising kids is harder than in the past, due to smaller and disconnected families, 2 working parents, fear/panic of letting kids roam outside, etc. Much of this is a societal failure.
