We all dreamt of becoming parents, we looked forward to that day! Coming from a family where there were more females than males, I too wanted children, four maximum just like my own parents. Today, most ‘dreamers’ including ours truly are now parents and that’s fantastic. The only problem is that for most, things didn’t exactly go according to the script. What we overlooked was all the work that goes with parenthood. Truth be told, and I am not trying to scare anyone here, until your children are all grown up with meaningful lives of their own, parenting is like a life sentence at Guatemala Bay.
While your envision a perfect life, with a caring supportive partner and well behaved children, often things don’t go according to plan. Studies show that almost 50% of parents end up splitting and going their separate ways and for most, this marks the end of your parenting dream. Other parents continue co-parenting their children with very little interruption to the children’s lives, for the rest, world war 3 erupts as all courtesy and even common sense is thrown out of the window!
