How did people back in the day have 7 kids without a second thought and nowadays raising 1 kid seems like a full time job?
Post Body

I understand from a financial perspective things were easier, but aside from that, just the amount you have to wake up each night to keep a newborn fed, how is it even possible to balance that with a bunch of other toddlers to take care of

Edit: The general consensus was that they were neglected in some capacity and given more responsibilities. So the question is why don’t we do that? So many kids seem like brats nowadays.

I agree that a lot of older generation parents did put as much effort and what not into their children but also todays grandparents aren’t really grandparents anymore most grandparents now just want to post their pictures to their facebooks and call it good. Older generation grandparents were way more willing to help with their grandbabies. We def don’t have the village that other generations did
