The OP was asking if it was harder with 2 kids than one. I am not

here
to
start a debate, but logically it is harder. Why do people lie and

say
parenting is a breeze? Sometimes it feels like some big secret

club,
that
no
one knows the secret to how bad it is until you are in it!

What don't you get? Parenting is not hard for everyone. To some

people
it
*is* a breeze. Why is that so hard for you to understand??

How do you make it a breeze Sophie? Id love to know. Like I said we

have
one
aged 8. Both my and my wife are shattered by 10pm. I work full time

she
is a
SAHM. If we stay up till midnight its an event!





time for some introspection if living life is this hard -- a full time
SAHM and a school aged child AND you are both 'shattered by 10 pm] That
seems really really odd


I don't know. We get almost zero help from family, maybe that's the
difference. It is very rare we get a night out alone. Have to book grandma
about 6 weeks in advance! We are both up at 7am everyday including

weekends.
Maybe when he is older and sleeping in at the weekends it will get easier.



7am? Holy **** that's late. Perhaps it is a matter of adjusting your
perpective.

Incidentally, why not hire a babysitter?
