My kids are nearly nine, seven, four and twelve weeks in my tummy. The hardest thing is dealing with three very distinct personalities. Ones that grow and change every day. My daughter the oldest is a very strong charecter and prone to he girly outbreaks of crying, whining and apparently not being understood!? The thing is that if they weren’t all in the same family they probably wouldn’t be friends. The amount they fight would put an end to that. so he hardest thing apart from living with them is teaching them to be understanding, forgiving and learn to live as a family no matter how different they are

for me the hardest part is my husband never being home to help out or just spend enough time with our daughter. and him getting so frustrated when she cries. the hardest part isnt the raising of my daughter but rather the lack of understanding from the people around me.
the best part is everything about my baby

For me, I would have to say the hardest thing about parenting would have to be not knowing what is wrong… when they’re crying or in pain and you don’t know how to stop it or fix it. That just makes my heart ache… as well as my head
The best part about being a parent would definetly have to be the love my son has for me. He’s only 5 months - but he knows who Mommy is. When he sees me walk in after nap time, or when he’s fussy and has a big grin on his face - it makes me melt. No other feeling can compare to that

Seeing them hurt is no doubt the hardest. I wish I could take away all their pain. This goes for all ages of children mentally and physically. A mom knows feelings she cant express…those feelings you cannot describe are the best part. I have 5 children ages 17 down to 4 and I am expecting my 6th and I am so excited now as I was the first time. The beauty of children is amazing!

Patience is the hardest for me, because that’s my weakness.

The best part is the front-row seats into the life of another human being. That’s just awesome, even on a bad day.

Raising 2 kids by myself and on 1 paycheck and getting them where they need to be. Another words, School, football and cheerleading practice, being home for them after school, and all other things they have to do. Like cleaning house and making sure clothes are cleaned for them.

Best part of being a parent is accomplishing everything you have to do and still have enough time to teach them and share with them.

I think that the hardest part is when you get sick yourself, you still can’t take a day off.

The best part is hearing them laugh and be happy.

Watching my boys going off to school,wondering will they come home safe.will someone try and hurt them, every day it’s the same watching and waiting praying
and what’s the best, watching them play together having dinner together everyday it’s something different
It’s hard everyday it’s different but it’s all worth it
