I cherish these days because I know those days are coming. My stay-at-home wife sometimes gets frustrated and annoyed by the kids, but she too knows these days will end and to enjoy them.

Talk about empty nest syndrome. Son was overseas in X42's army and my daughter left for college.

Boo hoo. I found a job tutoring a neighbor's learning disabled twin boys. They were six and she wanted no part of them. They always had a nanny until they started school. The family had never had a meal together, the boys often were put to sleep in the clothes they'd worn during the day.

This was a high income family who considered an exotic vacation enough togetherness. Very sad.
