To be fair, parenting is a pretty shitty gig. Expectations are high and support is low. People judge everything you do, especially those who have never done it themselves. Even with good kids its a thankless slog most of the time. God help you if you get a hard one.
In the early nineties I knew a Mormon man with a happy housewife & 10 kids and he would run a marathon by himself every day just to be out of the house.
Plenty of men work overtime so they don’t have to go back to their wife or gf
That was all the salesmen at one place I worked. Mormons with tons of kids. They’d go anywhere in the world to get away from them.
