First, I don't think parenting is "a job." I consider it a blessing.

You haven't lived until you been blessed with a 3 year-old that decided sh*t was a lot like playdough and was fun to mold into shapes. While in their bed. Or have had a cocktail of explosive diarrhea go off on you as you change a diaper. Or, been covered by projectile vomit. From 5 feet. Or sat through the night with a child so weak with flu that you feared they might die. Or, had that child tell you I hate you! when you tell them that they can eat 3rds on ice cream or can't have every toy that tickled their fancy. Get real. Maybe in the abstract. Otherwise, it's work. If it's not, you're not doing your "job". Someone else is. And believe me, I see it all over my neighborhood. Kids that never get told NO! Only GO! And they're little sh*ts when they act the way they do. I don't want my kid to play with them.
