When We Think About A Second, Our Toddler Pulls An All-Nighter And Reminds Us Why He Should Be The Only Child
If we had our second one first, there wouldn't have been a second one. 1) Sleeping through the night at 3 months. Potty trained in a day. Never ran a temperature once. 2) Sleeping through the night at 12 or 14 months, I think he's potty trained now (sophomore in college) Had to have tubes in his ears at 9 months, broke his arm in 3 places in 1st grade, swells up like a balloon whenever any bug bites him. Puberty hits - I will happily take 3 of #2 over pubescent #1...

Children Do Not Understand The Luxury Of Being Sent To Their Rooms To Think About Their Attitude
This made me laugh and reaffirm that being a parent was never an option because I don't like children even other people's.
I am a parent and still don't like other people's children. The universe knew what it was doing when I got my child, though, because parenting my son was never like this. He didn't make messes around his highchair, he napped wherever we were, he mostly slept through the night, he didn't poop away from home... He does have his own problems, so it's not been a cake-walk. But this kind of thing just didn't happen. My mom says that my two siblings and I were the same way.
