    There is a lot to be said when parents say shit like this. Other variations of this are “I had to deal with you when you were younger to be able to sleep”, or, “I gave everything I could to raise you!!” (Usually this one is after you disappoint them).

    I am a parent now (very recently but still), and I can already tell my parents were full of shit when they said stuff like this. Listen up fuckers, if you have kid(s), it is YOUR job to give them the best chances in life by default. You do anything less because you don’t feel like it (and we are not talking about life difficulties and circumstances, which is a whole different thing), it is YOUR fault. Is that simple

      Where you live? How much you make? How many hours daily you spend with kid? What is your job? Many variables in this equation yet you jump straight to conclusion.
