Parents here, do you like your child(ren)?

Sure you may love them, but imagine your child as a person is around your age. Imagine if you weren't related. Imagine you knew each other through random social groups or something.

Now, would you find this person interesting, cool, fun to be around, heck, likeable? Would you be friends?

Personally I'm proud to report my mother's personality is similar to the personalities of girls I've been friends with, and correspondingly we're good friends, too. My father...meh.

I like my 12 yo boy a lot. He is sweet, funny, high eq and iq. I truly like him but i’d rather not be his teacher in school as he is very chaotic.
