Here's the deal, I love being a parent. I really do. It's a priority in my life. I never thought I would be a parent, I thought I would be a selfish person that just catered to my own needs in life.
I did not want my deficits to be projected onto someone else. When the shock of parenthood hit me, late in life I must say. I really had no idea what I was in for. I had to pull my socks up and get on with it. Being a parent is hard work, it's a huge responsibility, but it gives you insight. It gives you insight into how hard it is if you are doing it properly. If I wanted to be a dopehead and put my child at risk that would be apparent. It's hard work being a good parent, it really is. It's exhausting at times.
When people are not doing the right thing, like some of these women you see in LC cell block. You can see right through them. Why? Because you have paid your dues and and you can see when someone is not doing the right thing.
I never thought I would be a parent. I am. I take it seriously. Sometimes when I want to go for drinks with the girls I can not, I have to do it at home and burden Mock Members. The end.
