Having kids certainly helps one to mature and grow into a new perspective

Believe it or not, there are helpful support resources out there which are typically hard to come across, you’ve admittedly just had a shitty experience (not uncommon)

They’ll need diags…they would rather you do it than walk your through it on a call

I agree, but it’s not so evident or easy for the average person. Who wants to deal with managing storage? Cloud will typically win for the masses, who are typically not thinking about privacy and may not know the difference between a SSD and HDD

This comment is completely out of touch in true HN fashion. The author believes having kids has turned into “an entitlement” and looks down upon this.

More than ever two working parents is a necessity for many families. To place blame solely on the parents for these circumstances ignores the larger picture of where we want to be as a society. Of course choosing to have children has consequences, but parents in the US should be able to have a reasonable expectation for affordable childcare, especially in a society and economy that demands multiple working parents.

But of course instead we could just blame the parents for creating the current scenario of unaffordable childcare.

I pay $1200/mo per kid in NC

I completely agree. There is an assumption of one or the other and not enough childcare supply to meet the true demand of two working parent communities.

Working parents send their kids to daycare out of necessity, it’s not a matter of being popular. Two working parents is also a necessity for many economically. Not everybody has the income and thus the convenience of having a stay at home parent.

In your words, this is a failure of the parent, but I disagree.
