How does society expect us to work from 8 till 17 and then go home and take care of kids ?
Even in a house where both parents do 50/50 when it comes to kids, how are we supposed to take proper care of kids with the little time we got ? I dont see any other choice than to sacrifice our own free time for it.
I'm a hobbyist (mostly fiber arts) and a gamer (as well as my boyfriend). We both play an online game that takes us sometimes hours, one game is anywhere between 15 to 50 minuts long. That alone takes so much of our free time, but its something we love to do and makes us happy.
Now with a kid... how are we supposed to take care of a kid AND play games/do hobbies that take us hours ? We just cant. Even just cooking for the family would take 2 hours. I cook sometimes for my family of 5 people and the time it takes to cook everything just doubles or even triples compared to cooking for 2 people !!! Just no. I want MY time and MY money for myself.
