I swear, this is one reason I never had kids. You think you are done when they grow up? Nope. They expect you to take care of their kids too.

Sorry you missed out on the beauty and joy of raising children...

My wife and I had six...each and everyone of them was told early on in their adult life, when they have children, we will not be the perpetual babysitter and daycare center...like so many of their peers treat their parents...

We are grandparents not the parents of their offspring... that's their job...

That being said we would never abandon our grandchildren to any broken corrupt child care state system if their parents could no longer take care of them...

Oh don't worry. I was 12 when my sister was born, and my mother felt my job was to be a part-time mom. I got plenty of beauty and joy, let me tell you.
