The hardest job in the world?

[Jennifer13]

I'm another who actually finds mothering comes *relatively* easily. I love doing it, so how hard can it be? My paid work isn't really hard either, but often I find that more physically and mentally draining than being a parent.

I watch DP manage half a dozen ppl at the office and I would absolutely put his job down as harder! And as you point out, Onyx, there are other parents whose gig is much tougher than mine.

I really appreciate how lucky I am in my parenting situation too. (PS Being in a relationship with my DP is often harder than parenting my DD! Adults come with soooo much more baggage - like iLs).
