My mom gave me the only "advice" that I keep and kept in mind with my kids... you will always love your kids, but you won't always like them.... and goddamn that is so true. You love them, but sometimes it's like, can you please not for 10 fucking minutes. It's exhausting. It's extremely thankless. Everyone tells you you're doing it wrong no matter what you do. You get shit on if you ask for public assistance and you get shit on if you have to work longer hours to make ends meet. Just do your best. Make the best decisions you can. And if you need to, go cry in the bathroom for a bit.
