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.
I don't really have anything to add, I just find it funny that Silver posts this sob story about the struggles and sacrifices of parenthood, and then proceeds to spend a bunch of time on the internet fighting the good fight.
