What are the biggest sacrifices you have had to make as a parent?

Was talking about it yesterday with a buddy of mine. We hardly get to play golf anymore since our kids have come. Said kids are 3 and under
I'd say ours (mine and my wife's (no pics)) would be:
-personal space
-a clean house
-a clean vehicle
-time at the fishing camp.
-time on a golf course

That first child, but Moloch demands satisfaction.

So let me get this straight - this is a thread complaining about losing the things you used to do because of children? Really?
Kids are the greatest gift one could have. It takes a short-sighted, narrow mind to complain that one's golf time is not as much as before because you have to take care of the kids. Good grief.
I'm a single Dad with no time to do the things and that doesn't bother me one bit. I prefer it this way. Some people.

Time for your own stuff. I used to camp and do a lot out of recreational sports (softball, basketball, kayaking). It'll get better once they get older and I can introduce them to that stuff

$14k a year to send two to private schools hurts my wallet

Easy there, trigger. I love my kids to death. the sacrifices are totally worth it... that said, let's not pretend like there aren't sacrifices.

I believe children are the future.

I'd imagine the biggest is that your life would now come second to your child's. Hence why I don't have one yet - I'm too damned selfish

Dont live in a shithole place and let them go to public school.

Honestly nothing. A lot of those things I used to look forward to I'd easily much rather spend with my daughter. Watching her growing up is the best thing I've ever experienced.

What a dumb belief. Next your going to be telling me that people have kids because they love children and not because they need labor in the fields.
