LOL I wish you were my kids' uncle... I'd send them to you for the weekend so I could get some sleep and they could get some college paid for.
Their actual uncle = more likely to hit them up for money hahahaha
It's not just college; private school tuition hurts too!
Pre-Kindergarten and Kindergarten (full day)
$19,990
Grades 1-5
$21,220
Grades 6-8
$22,760
Grades 9-12
$24,440
Ouch!
I never have to wake up for a 2am feeding for the baby.
I never have to change a dirty diaper or even buy a diaper (I hear they can be expensive. And you can go through 3-5 of them per day sometimes.)
I never have to deal with a toddler throwing a temper tantrum.
I've never been called by the school principal because junior was misbehaving.
I never have to worry about the kids growing out of their clothes and having to buy new ones every year.
I never have to worry about my own parents or other relatives criticizing my parenting skills (I've seen this happen in families a lot!)
If I want to play house with one person for years or sleep with a different ho every night, I can do that without worrying about how it would impact "the kids."
Uncles get all the joys and fun of having kids without any of the headache or limitations. If I don't want to spend time with the kids, or prefer to leave them behind so I can go clubbing, go on a cruise, or treat myself to some new toy, I can do that without any feelings of guilt or worrying about how I have to secure their future because they are not my responsibility.
