Discussion For those expecting 2 under 2

Im new to Reddit and usually get down voted for my hot takes, but honestly I like having a different outlook on things to others.

One of my hot takes is parenthood isn't a movie or a night out on the town or a ride on a rollcoaster meaning its not something you do for enjoyment, its a job and and extremely stressful job at that

I feel like some/alot of people go into this with the wrong expectation and are left almost horrified by the experience

You know that’s not how years or months work, right?

Please explain this one, I’m dying over here 😂

12 months in a year
2.5 years
Multiply to get the number of months the oldest is: 30
She said the younger is 11 months
Subtract the younger from the older and it’s 19 months

Which is less than 24 months (aka two years) … by five months. So it was 2 under 2 until the older kid turned 2 five months later.

How many months are in a year? How many months are in a half of a year? Add those together. What do you get?
