I'm not a mom or planning to become one, so I can't really put myself in those shoes, but I can clearly imagine my parents doing it once or twice and then half-assing it and then giving up altogether. I have no doubts that's how it would have ended up and I'm glad it never even started.

Where I'm getting at us, if you're going to disappoint your kids with "oh I'm tired because I'm hosting" "oh I'm tired from work", please ignore this LPT.
