The truth is, child rearing is not complicated. Therefore, it is not hard. There will be difficult moments, of course, . . . but if a parent is experiencing the rearing of a child or children as generally difficult—as emotionally, intellectually, and even physically exhausting, then the parent is doing something wrong. —John Rosemond, Family Building
