Seriously lol!! 😂😂we were at a carnival a few weeks ago and I had to continuously stop my 2.5 yo son from getting on the ground to put those huge cords in his mouth that run through the entire thing from ride to ride and everyone steps and spills and spits on. 🙃 boys are a different breed lol
Raising kids is the hardest thing I’ve ever done, honestly!! It takes so much self-discipline and patience. Hands-down the most all-encompassing course in character development out there!
I think you can develop your character just fine without children. You should anwyays. It shouldn't take another human being dependent on you for you to learn how to treat others and sacrifice and give to others.
It looks like pure misery from what I’ve seen and heard. All the screaming and interrupted sleep, no privacy or spontaneity and the running around after another human, the smelly nappies and mess, so chaotic and very unappealing. The stress is not good for your health. And how does it correlate with character building exactly??? Seems more like stress building. But if you’re fine with that type of lifestyle then you go for it. Some people prefer something more manageable and less chaotic, while others like to struggle and be worn out - because they probably don’t know any different.
Girl, I just dealt with my five year old getting mad that I tried to dare sit down and eat two cold Hot Pockets, so I just handed him a bag of potato chips, which he's now sitting on the floor and eating. Mommy already missed breakfast and is still hungry.
Do you regret it? I don’t have kids and people keep telling me I will regret not having kids. But I wonder if parents regret having them because they complain so much about how difficult it is
@@lizagueniat people kept telling me the same thing, disregarding my decision to not have children. We decided decades ago and we are still not experiencing any regrets not having children. We knew it wasn’t for us and that’s fine if you also realize they aren’t for you. The last thing you want is to do something for someone else, then there can be a chance to resent your child. Choosing not to have children doesn’t mean you automatically don’t like them. I work with children. I love each one of them so much, but at the end of the day, I go home happy with my decision. I hope this experience is helpful to you, best of luck in your journey.
Everyone says that to start with, but you aren't accounting for hormones. They tend to catch you unawares. I'd never felt maternal until I held my newborn Godson, and the same thing happened to my friend when she first held my son. I know one lady who never wanted children until she held a newborn and her own daughter was born nine months later to the day. I bet her husband never knew what hit him LOL.
@@cyflym11 Yeah, definitely not the case for everyone. From my own personal experience (I feel I should emphasize that since you used personal anecdotes for your comment) I feel terribly uncomfortable around babies, especially newborns. I find a lot of them kind of ugly, actually, though I can see why others would find them cute. I’ve never once enjoyed holding an infant. The exception may be when my little sibling was born, but I was two at the time and barely remember it so, who knows. Honestly, the world’s not looking too good at the moment, and pregnancy absolutely horrifies me in every way, and those are the two main reasons for not wanting children (and a reason to ignore any “hormones” popping up as you say). Babies aren’t gonna do a thing to change that.
If people could actually preview what their life will be like with kids, I'd bet plenty would decide against it. It's only rewarding if raising a family is your idea of success in life. If not, kids will feel like a constant burden, which is not only unfair to yourself, but unfair to them as well. Hormones and being in love with your partner tends to triggers the instinct to reproduce, which is a "survival of the species" mechanism, but it's important to look at things logically and ask yourself if you're really ready to give up 90% of your free time, energy, money, freedom, etc for the next 18 years.

They complain so much. And then when I respond : “wow thanks you aren’t really selling it to me though.” they switch to “oh no !!! It’s the best thing in the world!” 🤪
@@lizagueniat The lies! Misery loves company. Some of my friends or family try to tell me why having kids is worth it but when I see the truth they can’t hide in plain sight- it all becomes lies! 😆
As a mother of two little boys this was hilarious 😂 I can really relate to the lizard part... "What do you have?!?" Oh my goodness so funny great work 😍
We have 7 dogs. I swear it is like a daycare around here. Keeping dogs from bickering/fighting with each other, cleaning up messes coming from both ends, always asking "what's in your mouth?", the constant inside/outside game, etc.
I have a new puppy and it is work but I know its not the same as kids lol. My parents keep telling me how much more extreme each of my little puppy things will be with a baby making me doubt if I ever actually want one now lol.
This was SO accurate on both sides. I’m newly married with no kids, but seeing what my friends go through is enough to know this was spot on for all accounts😂
We don’t have kids and that scene where they slept in is legit. We have breakfast delivered from our favorite French Café and watch movies. We also go to happy hours on a whim. So accurate.
Spot on! I was one of those parents who proclaimed (pre-kids) that “our kids will never eat in the car”. 😬I remembered this statement as I was pulling the 1000th french fry from underneath the car mat.
A lot of 'silly' ideas do go straight out of the window! I did manage to stick to one or two of my principles, like no dummies and no TV in bedrooms, but I can't think of many others. They both spent far too much time on computers for a start, and they ate more sweets than I ever admitted to the dentist.
My son continuously tries to eat chair fries 🤦♀️ I have to vacuum the inside of the couch because he tries to eat anything and everything that falls under the cushions! We call him our scavenger
Hahahaha as a couple without kids this is so accurate. Talking to my mom friends on the phone is EXACTLY like that hahahahahaha. You just hear kids screaming and fighting in the background and they have to stop every five minutes to deal with meltdowns and play referee. Honestly, I used to really really want kids, but the older I get and the more I watch my friends go through it the more I'm okay that it hasn't happened for us lol. My life is pretty great and my stress levels are very low lol
The only way he could have made the phone conversation scene more accurate was to not have a glass of wine in his hand and to have someone play as Susan, and Susan ask if she needs to bring wine. I legit got a pack of Black Cherry White Claws for my closest mom friend as a Galentines gift this year.

It literally took me about 40 minutes to watch this video because my kid starts shouting as soon as I try to do something nice for myself. I never thought watching a four minute RUclips video uninterrupted would be a treat. This is my life now.
@@songsthatarecatchy there’s plenty of room to whine-hence the video 😂 part of being a parent is getting to whine to other parents about how terrible being a parent is sometimes! Comes with the territory and keeps us sane.
@@autumnbanks8642 yeah but you did make your own bed. Yeah parents bitching to other parents that makes sense you can relate to each other. Everyone needs a support group.
Watched this when I didn’t have my own children and now I’m a mother to twins, and literally nothing prepares you for parenthood 😭 You did this perfectly and I hardcore relate to this now
My husband and I tried to watch this 4-minute video with two of our three kids in bed with us. After all the pauses for whining and getting kneed in the chin we finished in 15 minutes.
Nothing prepares you for being a parent. Literally nothing. He’s extremely accurate as always 👍🏻 The definition of “stress” and “busy-busy” is especially brilliant 😉
But, it’s also a beautiful gift that society doesn’t appreciate. Children are a little gift from God is it sad that people complain about children when they’re literally a Blessing. Of course, life isn’t always easy and attaining Holiness and following Christ is hard, but do able. We are supposed to learn about Jesus Christ and teach our Children about Christ and God’s Commandments.
I felt pretty prepared for having kids. I have a younger sister who is 12 years younger that I helped raise (I would say more than helped). Also, my mom was on bedrest with her and my ex stepfather was useless, so I learned to juggle school and a household at a young age. My sister was colicky, so I also learned to function as a sleep deprived human. That said, having my own children was still hard because unlike with my sister, there's something to be said for being solely responsible for the well being of another individual.
I identified with this so hard 🤣😂🤣😂 Thank you for the laugh I snuck while feeding the baby with the other hand while he threw food on the floor and growled at me 🤣
Thank you for ending it on the note that you did and reminding me why I choose to still be child free despite the guilt I’ve been feeling about child free lately
There's nothing wrong with being child free. Maternity is hard and the only way to go through it successfully is if your heart is dead set on it. The mothers who claim it's rewarding are sincere but they do it because it was their choice. If people don't have the necessary love and patience for kids they should not have them because that's how child abuse happens.
"Little Jameson, how did you miss the entire bathroom?" Lesson: We should be grateful when grown men miss the toilet because at least they made it to the bathroom. Lol!!!!!
I’ve was thinking it was going to be more I don’t go into that bathroom unless I’m cleaning it. My husband laughs because my son’s not allowed to use my bathroom and I will walk to the other end of the house to use mine not his. It’s disgusting and cleaned often but I just can’t use that bathroom.
This was hilarious! My son is now 12 and I don't have to be nearly as busy around him as I was when he was much younger, this is super accurate. We bond in different ways now that he is older and it's still hilarious, just that we can share more jokes and pranks now. When you become a parent it teaches you so much about love, life and who you are. I can't imagine not being a mom and I was one of those women who didn't care if they would have kids when I was in my 20s. All changed when my boy arrived. He's the sweetest kid and the best son I could ever hope for. Kids are amazing. Bless you!
I've got a 17 year old, 10-year-old and now have a 1-year-old. I honestly can't remember what having 5 hours of sleep in a row is like anymore. 😩 Have kids they said! It'll be fun they said! 🙄
I remember one day I woke up freaking out and exclaiming to my boyfriend, "I got seven hours of sleep for the first time in three years! I feel amazing!" Haha it really is like that for moms...not so much for dads
Yup, I am a child and family therapist and am an oldest of 5, was subject to this and see this responsibility thrust upon my clients a lot. Amazed at how many parents think that passing the buck to their oldest children is necessary/a good idea. I've heard every excuse in the book...
I’m the oldest of my siblings. I was the in house babysitter and refuse to do that to my oldest. He’s almost 12 and I have an almost 2 year old. I tell him all the time his brother is my responsibility. You are not his parent and if I need you to babysit in the future, you will be paid for it and it won’t be a regular thing.
@@junipersages The worst is when one of your parents (divorced) is a child when it comes to proper discipline so you feel like you should be the parent instead as the oldest kid. Can't wait to at least attempt to do it better than my mom. :)
New mama here- we have a 6 month old... this is freaking hilarious! I had to quietly enjoy this since baby is sleeping on my chest. Trey, you're the best!!!!!
That's when you say eff it. Your partner is capable of doing laundry too if they don't oh, well no clean clothes. I wash laundry but I rarely put it up anymore. It just lays in a pile
I don’t have kids, but babysitting my niece and nephew for years made me feel like I did have kids. I had very little sleep as if I were their Mom. Even when their Mom was home, I still did most of the work. If you let your kids get away with everything, they become little monsters. If you give them structure and discipline it is far better and they tend to be less work. When my sister allowed for them to have structure and discipline, they actually behaved very well. When she did a complete 180, and let her kids get away with everything, acting like her kids could do no wrong, they changed into brats. It doesn’t just effect them, it effects everyone. Those years were some of the most miserable in my life. I love them, but oh my goodness they have become monsters. I was never allowed to turn into that. For everyone’s sake, please give your kids discipline and structure. You’re only setting your kids up for failure, and making everyone else’s life miserable, including yours if you don’t. Trust me…
So, so true. It makes me so sad to hear people say they don't understand why anyone would want kids because they're so terrible, or for parents to say they can't stand being with their kids because they're so annoying. All it takes, in most cases, is consistent love and discipline and even the most rambunctious, stubborn, and strong-willed child can be a joy to be around! Not saying it's always pleasant or easy, because it's definitely not, but it's so worth it! I love my kids more than I can even imagine possible, and while of course I get stressed out at times, I genuinely enjoy being with them and miss them when they're away from me. I understand parenting may not be for everyone, but it shouldn't be looked at as some sort of nightmare either. To a great extent, your children are what you make them, especially in the early years. If you don't like something about them, i.e. temper tantrums or being extremely whiny, teach them to conquer it. Teach them to become functioning members of society from the time they're infants, instead of making your society conform to them. Take them out in public with you instead of going alone and depriving them of the opportunity to observe and learn how to behave in various social settings. Our job as parents is to prepare our children for the day they are willing and able to choose their own path in life and give them the tools they need to take their place in the world as strong and capable adults.
Raising children is the most difficult but the most wonderful thing ever, one (28 yrs old now) was super difficult and stressed me out like Trey portrayed in the video, and another (18 yrs old) who was pretty easy to raise. I love them both very very much and both are great gifts from God.
That’s a sweet story Beth that’s awesome :) moms are a seriously respectable title to hold and raising someone difficult and still loving them proves that you’re a really good mom.
We've raised four and we could so relate to this video. You should do a video of the huge difference between raising boys and girls. Thanks for keeping us laughing!
I can’t imagine my life without our son, he is the joy, happiness, and cute loud bundle of laughter and endless cuddles. He is almost 5. He tells us stories how his school was flying to space and how the building turned into space ship with serious face. At the end comments, well that was actually a joke I didn’t fly to space today))) Different stories every day)). And he brings me flowers to make me smile, I love love love to be a Mom.
1:05 this is so accurate. As someone who grew up in an ethnic extended family where everyone had to help the mum take care of the child. My cousin left all the expensive toys we bought for him just so play with a paper bag. That’s how I knew kids are content with ANYTHING
@tta1390 As an uncle, what I've learned is (Hell, considering extended family, I might as well say even BEFORE I became one), when it comes to the expensive toys (namely, the ones mommy and daddy WASTE the big bucks on), I get consolation knowing it's not MY money being wasted, at least!🤫😏 Now, I love my nephew and nieces to death (don't get me wrong) BUT, at least I know it's MY prerogative whether or not I spend MY money on ONE gift for EACH of them come their birthdays and Christmas!
Pretty accurate! I fondly remember all those parenting things I said I'd never do that I have now done. :D It's true that being a parent unlocked levels of exhaustion and anxiety I didn't know existed, even after years of med school and hospital work. But I also feel like I've felt more love, joy and satisfaction since my daughter was born than I was even capable of before. So I feel like the trade off is worth it.
I'm always grateful I never had kids. Celebrating 16 years with my wife this month and we love our lives. We do whatever we want whenever we want. We have alot of money that we get to spend on ourselves lol. However, I'm sure there's nothing more wonderful than having children. Although we are very satisfied with our dogs and cats😊 and have never once regretted our decision.
@@FruityUnicorn17 Thank you! I’ll never understand why people think children are right for everybody and that your life isn’t complete without them. When you’re thinking of getting a pet you’re told to carefully consider if you have the time and space for it to take care of it properly and then to get a breed that matches your lifestyle and activity level and that if you can’t do these things don’t get it because it would be unfair to the pet. But when someone says they don’t want/aren’t ready for kids, which is a way bigger responsibility, people are like, “ No, you just think that now but you’ll change your mind, trust me you should have them.” Like I just told you I don’t want them, doesn’t that disqualify me as being someone you would want to be a parent? I am not too proud to say that I should not raise children for their sake and mine.
The sleep thing is so accurate. You savor each minute of sleep now. And yes 3 hour trip to Wal-Mart. That one stop to and from with minimal hardship is a victory. Here's to being a parent and doing the best you can each and everyday. Thanks for the laugh Trey! Always able to capture any character
@@KSGomez88 lemme guess, you also think being a mother is the hardest job in the world and your life revolves around that fact because you have no other significant life achievements other than not using condoms one night
After having a kid why would you ever want to “do it” again? You know that’s how you got the first one, right? I wouldn’t even trust a vasectomy enough to try…

@@iheartmygummybear they were confused about the word parents because parents mean you have kids so the word couples would’ve fit but it’s fine
I said to a lady that said how cute my daughter is... ‘tell me how cute she is after you spend a day with her 😇’
This was SO accurate on both sides. I’m newly married with no kids, but seeing what my friends go through is enough to know this was spot on for all accounts😂
The fact that trey knows exactly what parenting is like when he doesnt have kids is mindblowing!
How does he know all our secrets?! 🤯
Because parents don’t seem to shut up about it online and irl
My guess is that he was a 'Jamison' as a child.
Maybe he's from a big family?
Not really, he got all the bad stuff cause parents love to complain
Maybe he actually listens to his parent friends instead of tuning them out lol.
It’s scary how good at being a mom trey is
We don’t have kids and that scene where they slept in is legit. We have breakfast delivered from our favorite French Café and watch movies. We also go to happy hours on a whim. So accurate.
not a care in the world nice
normally I dislike potty humor but the stairs bit got me.
Same here! Lol
Me too
Spot on! I was one of those parents who proclaimed (pre-kids) that “our kids will never eat in the car”. 😬I remembered this statement as I was pulling the 1000th french fry from underneath the car mat.
SAME!!! I also swore I would never let my kids eat sugar...ooopppsss
A lot of 'silly' ideas do go straight out of the window! I did manage to stick to one or two of my principles, like no dummies and no TV in bedrooms, but I can't think of many others. They both spent far too much time on computers for a start, and they ate more sweets than I ever admitted to the dentist.
My son continuously tries to eat chair fries 🤦♀️ I have to vacuum the inside of the couch because he tries to eat anything and everything that falls under the cushions! We call him our scavenger
"No guns in the house. Guns aren't toys"...child used a stick as gun, 10,000 nerf guns later...
I remember saying my children will never have snotty noses.
The little cry after "got my flask" is SO accurate LMAOO. I have a 3 year old son and I'll never have another child 😂😂😅
Hahahaha as a couple without kids this is so accurate. Talking to my mom friends on the phone is EXACTLY like that hahahahahaha. You just hear kids screaming and fighting in the background and they have to stop every five minutes to deal with meltdowns and play referee. Honestly, I used to really really want kids, but the older I get and the more I watch my friends go through it the more I'm okay that it hasn't happened for us lol. My life is pretty great and my stress levels are very low lol
Yes I agree. I'm single without kids and I'm grateful for my low stress levels and being able to sleep in and do whatever I want when I want it.
The only way he could have made the phone conversation scene more accurate was to not have a glass of wine in his hand and to have someone play as Susan, and Susan ask if she needs to bring wine. I legit got a pack of Black Cherry White Claws for my closest mom friend as a Galentines gift this year.
Its like they smell u out!! I swear!!!
I have to agree. kids are not for everyone and that's okay.
I do whatever I want whenever I want with my two kiddos in tow 🤷♀️
"the wiggles is your parent now" lmao 100% can relate.
Thanks Trey. As a wife with no kids who has had baby fever recently….you brought me back to reality. Thank you for the birth control 🤌🏼😅

My husband and I tried to watch this 4-minute video with two of our three kids in bed with us. After all the pauses for whining and getting kneed in the chin we finished in 15 minutes.
Lol best comment yet 😆
I loved his phone conversation. Why do kids lose their minds when we pick up a phone?? 😄
Well-done... My daughter would throw a fit and I'd have to stop... that's why I am watching it now thar she's in bed.
As a 30 year old having my very first child I actually can’t wait to see the difference so I can come back and laugh at this video even harder 😂
I had my first at 40. You might have an easy baby. My baby is not lol but they do exist.
Did you come back and laugh ?? 😂😂 or are you still trying to catch up on sleep lol
I need an update, mostly because I’m 31 and about to have my first kid 😅
you meant *cry hard
It's all 100 true.
Nothing prepares you for being a parent. Literally nothing. He’s extremely accurate as always 👍🏻 The definition of “stress” and “busy-busy” is especially brilliant 😉
so true
@@DecoratingBeautifully thank you:)
But, it’s also a beautiful gift that society doesn’t appreciate. Children are a little gift from God is it sad that people complain about children when they’re literally a Blessing. Of course, life isn’t always easy and attaining Holiness and following Christ is hard, but do able. We are supposed to learn about Jesus Christ and teach our Children about Christ and God’s Commandments.
Not true. 3 younger siblings. And proper training from your parents. Gets you to, like.....5%.
I felt pretty prepared for having kids. I have a younger sister who is 12 years younger that I helped raise (I would say more than helped). Also, my mom was on bedrest with her and my ex stepfather was useless, so I learned to juggle school and a household at a young age. My sister was colicky, so I also learned to function as a sleep deprived human.
That said, having my own children was still hard because unlike with my sister, there's something to be said for being solely responsible for the well being of another individual.
The carseat bit had me cackling! This is so accurate.
LOL! They're asleep if we don't talk we can have a date night. OMG SO TRUE!!!! 🙃🙃
I’m uncomfortable with the fact that Trey has a camera in my home.

As a mom, I want to laugh and cry at the same time watching the accuracy of this😩
🤣🤣
I identified with this so hard 🤣😂🤣😂 Thank you for the laugh I snuck while feeding the baby with the other hand while he threw food on the floor and growled at me 🤣
Thank you for ending it on the note that you did and reminding me why I choose to still be child free despite the guilt I’ve been feeling about child free lately
There's nothing wrong with being child free. Maternity is hard and the only way to go through it successfully is if your heart is dead set on it. The mothers who claim it's rewarding are sincere but they do it because it was their choice. If people don't have the necessary love and patience for kids they should not have them because that's how child abuse happens.
@@perlasmermaid5812 Yes, the last and worst thing to do is having a child that isn't loved.
Sue here: don't feel guilty. A lot of us love kids and parenting. 💚
"Little Jameson, how did you miss the entire bathroom?" Lesson: We should be grateful when grown men miss the toilet because at least they made it to the bathroom. Lol!!!!!
I’ve was thinking it was going to be more I don’t go into that bathroom unless I’m cleaning it. My husband laughs because my son’s not allowed to use my bathroom and I will walk to the other end of the house to use mine not his. It’s disgusting and cleaned often but I just can’t use that bathroom.
Sometimes they dont if they are drunk lol D:
My now 23 year old son used to pee on the outlets in his room rather than in the toilet.

This was hilarious! My son is now 12 and I don't have to be nearly as busy around him as I was when he was much younger, this is super accurate. We bond in different ways now that he is older and it's still hilarious, just that we can share more jokes and pranks now.
When you become a parent it teaches you so much about love, life and who you are. I can't imagine not being a mom and I was one of those women who didn't care if they would have kids when I was in my 20s. All changed when my boy arrived. He's the sweetest kid and the best son I could ever hope for. Kids are amazing. Bless you!
Yup.... Sleeping 5 hours in a row is a rare event.
I've got a 17 year old, 10-year-old and now have a 1-year-old. I honestly can't remember what having 5 hours of sleep in a row is like anymore. 😩 Have kids they said! It'll be fun they said! 🙄
@@jesswoodrum7260 I have 2 toddlers rn and I'm not even going to lie, your life sounds horrific even to me. 😅
I remember one day I woke up freaking out and exclaiming to my boyfriend, "I got seven hours of sleep for the first time in three years! I feel amazing!" Haha it really is like that for moms...not so much for dads
Kids are so tiring to raise.
Especially as an older sibling who gets turned into the babysitter. . . For years.
Yup, I am a child and family therapist and am an oldest of 5, was subject to this and see this responsibility thrust upon my clients a lot. Amazed at how many parents think that passing the buck to their oldest children is necessary/a good idea. I've heard every excuse in the book...
I’m the oldest of my siblings. I was the in house babysitter and refuse to do that to my oldest. He’s almost 12 and I have an almost 2 year old. I tell him all the time his brother is my responsibility. You are not his parent and if I need you to babysit in the future, you will be paid for it and it won’t be a regular thing.
@@jessielynn
That's so touching. •́ ‿ ,•̀
Wow, my mom had to do that for her younger siblings too. Very strange! Why does the other child have to be a parent??
@@junipersages The worst is when one of your parents (divorced) is a child when it comes to proper discipline so you feel like you should be the parent instead as the oldest kid. Can't wait to at least attempt to do it better than my mom. :)
Thanks!
New mama here- we have a 6 month old... this is freaking hilarious! I had to quietly enjoy this since baby is sleeping on my chest. Trey, you're the best!!!!!
Congrats!! Happy belated to your little guy/girl!!
I felt the laundry desperation IN MY SOUL
I found it hilarious that I felt the no-kids part of that, haha, I get so overwhelmed sometimes with the laundry for just myself and my husband...
That's when you say eff it. Your partner is capable of doing laundry too if they don't oh, well no clean clothes. I wash laundry but I rarely put it up anymore. It just lays in a pile
I don’t have kids, but babysitting my niece and nephew for years made me feel like I did have kids. I had very little sleep as if I were their Mom. Even when their Mom was home, I still did most of the work. If you let your kids get away with everything, they become little monsters. If you give them structure and discipline it is far better and they tend to be less work. When my sister allowed for them to have structure and discipline, they actually behaved very well. When she did a complete 180, and let her kids get away with everything, acting like her kids could do no wrong, they changed into brats. It doesn’t just effect them, it effects everyone. Those years were some of the most miserable in my life. I love them, but oh my goodness they have become monsters. I was never allowed to turn into that. For everyone’s sake, please give your kids discipline and structure. You’re only setting your kids up for failure, and making everyone else’s life miserable, including yours if you don’t. Trust me…
So, so true. It makes me so sad to hear people say they don't understand why anyone would want kids because they're so terrible, or for parents to say they can't stand being with their kids because they're so annoying. All it takes, in most cases, is consistent love and discipline and even the most rambunctious, stubborn, and strong-willed child can be a joy to be around! Not saying it's always pleasant or easy, because it's definitely not, but it's so worth it! I love my kids more than I can even imagine possible, and while of course I get stressed out at times, I genuinely enjoy being with them and miss them when they're away from me. I understand parenting may not be for everyone, but it shouldn't be looked at as some sort of nightmare either. To a great extent, your children are what you make them, especially in the early years. If you don't like something about them, i.e. temper tantrums or being extremely whiny, teach them to conquer it. Teach them to become functioning members of society from the time they're infants, instead of making your society conform to them. Take them out in public with you instead of going alone and depriving them of the opportunity to observe and learn how to behave in various social settings. Our job as parents is to prepare our children for the day they are willing and able to choose their own path in life and give them the tools they need to take their place in the world as strong and capable adults.
The “how did you miss the entire bathroom” bit had me dead
Yes🤣🤣
Raising children is the most difficult but the most wonderful thing ever, one (28 yrs old now) was super difficult and stressed me out like Trey portrayed in the video, and another (18 yrs old) who was pretty easy to raise. I love them both very very much and both are great gifts from God.
ew what a soccor mom
@@Cornstarchrr Ew, what a wilted potato🥔
That’s a sweet story Beth that’s awesome :) moms are a seriously respectable title to hold and raising someone difficult and still loving them proves that you’re a really good mom.
I had one of those challenging ones too. He's 26 now. Then I had two of the easy ones. We don't get to choose. Lol.

Love Trey! Totally feel completely exhausted after only 5 hours of sleep. Meanwhile “ONLY” 5 hours is very much an adapted parent bedtime.
After being a parent for 28 years, let me say this is the truest, on spot video of parents and non-parents I've ever seen. Loved it.
I can’t imagine my life without our son, he is the joy, happiness, and cute loud bundle of laughter and endless cuddles. He is almost 5. He tells us stories how his school was flying to space and how the building turned into space ship with serious face. At the end comments, well that was actually a joke I didn’t fly to space today))) Different stories every day)). And he brings me flowers to make me smile, I love love love to be a Mom.
I need to show my mom this video whenever she ask me time time again when I’m going to have kids!! 💁🏾♂️😆
1:05 this is so accurate. As someone who grew up in an ethnic extended family where everyone had to help the mum take care of the child. My cousin left all the expensive toys we bought for him just so play with a paper bag. That’s how I knew kids are content with ANYTHING
@tta1390 As an uncle, what I've learned is (Hell, considering extended family, I might as well say even BEFORE I became one), when it comes to the expensive toys (namely, the ones mommy and daddy WASTE the big bucks on), I get consolation knowing it's not MY money being wasted, at least!🤫😏 Now, I love my nephew and nieces to death (don't get me wrong) BUT, at least I know it's MY prerogative whether or not I spend MY money on ONE gift for EACH of them come their birthdays and Christmas!
Pretty accurate! I fondly remember all those parenting things I said I'd never do that I have now done. :D
It's true that being a parent unlocked levels of exhaustion and anxiety I didn't know existed, even after years of med school and hospital work. But I also feel like I've felt more love, joy and satisfaction since my daughter was born than I was even capable of before. So I feel like the trade off is worth it.
I love how Mom Trey wears the bathrobe out for errands 😂
🤣🤣🤣
I love children, but what I love more is telling children to go back to their parents.
Parenting may not be for you... and that's perfectly fine. 👍
Totally this!! lol

I'm always grateful I never had kids. Celebrating 16 years with my wife this month and we love our lives. We do whatever we want whenever we want. We have alot of money that we get to spend on ourselves lol. However, I'm sure there's nothing more wonderful than having children. Although we are very satisfied with our dogs and cats😊 and have never once regretted our decision.

@@FruityUnicorn17 Thank you! I’ll never understand why people think children are right for everybody and that your life isn’t complete without them. When you’re thinking of getting a pet you’re told to carefully consider if you have the time and space for it to take care of it properly and then to get a breed that matches your lifestyle and activity level and that if you can’t do these things don’t get it because it would be unfair to the pet. But when someone says they don’t want/aren’t ready for kids, which is a way bigger responsibility, people are like, “ No, you just think that now but you’ll change your mind, trust me you should have them.” Like I just told you I don’t want them, doesn’t that disqualify me as being someone you would want to be a parent? I am not too proud to say that I should not raise children for their sake and mine.
