Parenting isn't for everyone so I don't judge.

But for me it happened to be most amazing thing in my life so far.

Clearly, the posted article is not very serious, the list of cons seem very shallow as compared to the deep lifelong joys that may come of parenthood.

My first child was unplanned and unwanted by me anyway. Having a child in college was definitely not part of my Grand Plan. I wasn't on speaking terms with his mom but thankfully she still invited me to his birth. As soon as I saw his bloody little head my life changed for the better forever. Then I went home to get some sleep before a calculus final.

Now, thirty years later, with only one daughter remaining in college, my wife and I have plenty of time and money to enjoy our freedom. Though not a second goes by that I don't miss my babies.
