Mom refuses to let dad of a 7-year-old and 8-month-old twins go on a solo trip without the rest of the family: ‘I’m working, we don’t have full time child care, and it’s honestly just a lot with the 3 kids’
Once you become a parent, a lot of your freedom gets swallowed up.

There’s a difference between kid people and baby people. Baby people love having babies. They always want someone to cuddle with who depends on them for everything.
