I’ll tell you the main reason both work, and it will piss many off. It’s easier to have someone else raise your kids than do it yourself. That should get some conversation going. ...duel...
I have been blessed in my career path, that when the kids were young, I could work from home, and adjust my hours.
But they of course spent time in daycare, as parts of working life was not kid friendly. Maybe 18 hours a week or so for the most part was their time in care of others.

But agree, I am not a kid fella, even my own 4....haha

Who is raising these disrespectful kids?
I'll take partial responsibility for it, because I let her go to the wrong college for the wrong thing, the rest goes to the college. My oldest daughter was a sweetheart. We hunted and fished, she had a job in high school, good student, a great hard working kid. Off she goes to college in MN for education, then counseling and social work. Now she is a turd. I cannot stand to be in the same room very long. Noticed it happening and cut it off at the pass with the younger daughter. She was and is still a great kid at 30.

My sister raised a liberal socialist idiot. He is still in the process of finishing he PHD in some type of Engineering, and boy can I not be around the arrogant little bastard. He is the smartest guy in the room education wise, and of course that makes the rest of us dumb country bumpkins.

This fall I was talking to a group of 19 to 20 year olds out goosehunting, We were talking about technololgy and how nice onyx is. The one kid was laughing about his boss having a plat book with fields and spots marked where he'd had success, I was thinking it wasn't that long ago I used plat maps all the time. lol made me feel old.
I always thought your tag was from bowman county nd but its prolly u are a bowman but it relived my hunting days down south of rhame nd not dising anyone but we my father and i saw some great bucks in bowman county before the posting to a tee but we had some private to hunt also an i remember those cold nights sleeping in the pickup. Always killed good whitetails but never got the giaints that run as soon as u drivebdown the county road. That will be my memories with my father he is to old to walk alot for deer. I once wounded a big whitey south of marmarth nd killed the buck on the ice of the little river. Palmated as all get out but i was young as hell got the first bullet in him and he was spraying blood wounded i was young an shaky we ran him down cold as shit 13 degree weather right at sunset couldnt hit shit my old man grabbed the gun an put that deer down. We might of lost the buck if not for my father. An actuaully i fell through the little missouri retrieving the buck my insulated pants froze into a z shape on me before i got back to the rig.
