The reward is worth the sacrifice.
It’s funny how some people treat responsibility. It’s like they are trying to convince me that brushing teeth is “worth sacrifice”. I totally agree and I’ll probably need to bring this topic to therapy.
Take having kids, for example. You have kids, but you have to earn a fortune, you have to change pampers and you have to regulate yourself emotionally not to fuck up their psyche. It’s not that I don’t want to have kids because I don’t value kids over these chores, it’s just I’m afraid if I don’t do these chores, I’ll be responsible for their shitty future.
Brushing teeth is totally worth doing, but if I one day don’t feel like it - it’s not a problem.

Don’t let those other parents fool you, we ALL have don’t feel like it days. You can just take more of them as the kids get older.

You sound like a very responsible individual, TBH
