    5 out of 7 days laboring for someone else.

    I was raised by a single mother with a full time job. I feel like I only knew her on weekends. And even then she was sleeping or doing chores/errands. We’re not super close now. And I think that’s largely because we just didn’t get the time during those developmental years.

    And as you can imagine, if people aren’t getting quality time with their parents growing up, those people may end up without the guidance they need to be decent people with a strong moral compass or have the skills to handle adulthood.

    Our society is ill.
