Same here. Having kids is the best part of my life but it hasn’t been easy. I also had kids later so we were established in a home and with two well above average incomes, so we were better prepared for it than most people are. But it’s tough. We got through that and successfully raised two kids we can be proud of, although now we’re fighting the final boss: college expenses.
Honestly, I don’t know how people without our level of privilege do it: society creates challenges at every turn to block you from doing your best for them. How can we be surprised that few people choose that?
