job with no salary

1. Parenting is a 24-hour-a-day job with no salary, no raises, no promotions and very few vacations.

2. Parents are responsible for everything that happens to their children.

3. Guilt and self-blame are occupational hazards.

4. Parents don’t get worker’s compensation or any other fringe benefits.

5. Parents can never retire — even when their kids ask them to.

6. Parents “don’t get no respect” –until they die–and then it’s too late.
