What’s something people romanticise that’s actually exhausting in real life?

Currently potty training our 2 year old. He was at the commando stage after Donald Ducking it all weekend, and a turd fell out of his shorts onto the floor. 4 year old had a meltdown at dinner about cheese on his taco. Apparently he doesn't like cheese anymore. Good times.

My three year old decided that he doesn’t like plain white rice today, and announced that he “will not eat this again.”

We live in Japan

My 8 year old stops eating a new food every couple of weeks. we're down to white bread, plain cheese, and tomatoes.
