Why do children bring joy to some and stress to others?

llenahS: Why do children bring joy to some and stress to others?
Are parents with 3 or more children really happy? Or does that happiness come after everyone is out of diapers, able to talk, and not so dependent?

there are those that should never become parents, they haven’t the skills needed, nor the true desire for kids, why they have them anyway has always been a puzzle to me. They make their own stress and grief.
Then there are those just born to be good parents, they have lots of kids, they have the necessary skills to raise them and enjoy every happy moment they have with them.
If you are considering a family, spend some time in a local daycare and find out which you are.

Answer by d. w
some people become parents for the wrong reasons. be it to get a check or to try and hold on to someone. others miscalculate the needed commitment to raise a child. it’s a lifelong responsibility that never ends. the love is unconditional and has no boundaries. they didn’t ask to be here and had no choice in the decision. happiness should be educating them and watching them grow. a lot of parents forget that they were once children and don’t let their kids be kids! the gift of life is nothing to stress about but rather to treasure.
