A house, two cars, a healthy relationship ,a career, livable wage, 2.5 kids, a dog. ya know, the expectation many children were told in school.

Everything I hear on social media says this is a myth.

    I wish I did dogs after kids, I just don’t have the bandwidth to take care of them to the standard I did before.

    Glad to hear you are doing well, do you ever feel survivors guilt when you read about people struggling to get by?

      I live in Europe, so I already had survivor’s guilt during university when I learned about college debts in the US.

      I am well aware that I’m doing good, and I try to feel grateful for that everyday.
