Yes, unless you love your kids.


No, that's completely false. You can love your kids but still find it non-relaxing to take care of them. Just ask... literally any parent.


Don't ask me... Spending time with the kids, looking after them or not is super relaxing. It's the best bit of life.


I agree that it's the best bit of life. But how on earth you manage to find a crying baby that decides to wake you up in the middle of the night relaxing is beyond me :)


Its ok. They don't want to admit reality. I ahve 3 kids (one is a baby) and I love them to death but crying baby is never fun and certainly not relaxing and I am happy to admit that.


True true. And after they learn to walk you got about two weeks and the learn how to run and then you’re chasing them for 5 years. Mine are 13 and 10 and it’s pretty nice atm. The 10 year old still thinks I hang the moon and the 13 year old is just enough of a smart ass to make me laugh.


hahaha so true. I have a 9 year old, 8 year old and 5 months old (I know I know. Diaper days are back again). The 9 year old already talks like she is 13 and the 8 year usually follows her and well, the 5 month old. Baby doing baby things :)


How old are your kids?


Even when you love your kids, I don’t think caring for them can be described as relaxing.
