    With a statement like that, there’s no middle ground. Either you’re a unicorn of a parent who can deal with it all or you’re leaving someone else with most of the burden.

    … so tell us, precious, which is it?

      “skiing is great fun”

      With a statement like that, there’s no middle ground. You must be a one in a million natural athlete.

      Just because it’s fun doesn’t mean it isn’t work and you don’t fall down many many times.

        “deal with it all” is the falling on your behind repeatedly and not being discouraged by it. If that requires being a one in a million athlete, sure, that’s what I’m saying.

      Maybe I’m just old and neurodivergent but going out and partying sounds like a miserable time to me. I’d take changing diapers and being a human jungle gym for my kid any day.
