Always Remember, 80% of your kid's life will be when he couldn't give a shit about you because he's trying to live his own life. Your job as a parent is to just make sure he makes it to 18, not to put him on some pedestal.

Good parenting is about providing the necessities, not inflicting heavy self esteem issues, and showing an interest in what that do. That's about it.

Actually, studies are starting to show that parenting doesn't make much of a difference in a kid's ultimate outcome. People are born with certain levels of intelligence, stick-to-it-iveness, and other personality traits, and parents have limited power to modify these traits.

A lot of parents feel pressured to spend tens of thousands of dollars on their kids each year: private schools, piano lessons, tutors, other bullshit like that. Probably, you can cut out most of these expenses while still having the same or similar outcomes. So its much more affordable for middle class people to have kids than they think, because most of the so-called expenses are actually a complete pile of shit.
