I am saying some accomodation is neccessary but that should be done in a way that minimzes impact to others. Ie flexible work hours not other people covering for you.
And yes parenting is easy. It can be stressful but it is most definately easy. What is difficult about it? Cooking for kids is no more work than cooking for yourself, cleaning is more work but is manageable, and spending time with your kids is more rewarding than watching tv. For reference, I have a 3 year old and a 1 year old

Well every situation is different and I don't know your circumstances, but you are an anomaly among parents to think it is an easy job. It seems almost unbelievable. What's difficult about it? I guess less sleep, less money, less relaxation time, less freedom and flexibility to enjoy hobbies and friends, more demands on your time, frustrations (tantrums, feedings, potty training, etc.), more responsibility, more illness, diapers, laundry, more cleaning, baths, etc. not to mention the endurance just to keep that up year after year. Throw in any life curve ball such as the death of a loved one, car accident, etc. and it becomes even harder. Parenting is easy, is it? No, objectively it is not. I can't believe we are even having this conversation.
