Nice quote

[andrewducker]

Living with one child is like living with a demanding, but mostly reasonable, roommate who really likes spending time with you until she goes to bed early.

Having two or more children is like living in a circus where all the performers are deaf.

From this HN discussion of how having a baby changes your life.

Less than 10 comments in and there was the start of arguments about 1) breastfeeding and 2) cosleeping. Ah, parenting discussions on the internet, don't ever change.

Good quote, though.
