Totally agree. Raising kids is harder than raising cats. I guess it's the similar in, when they grow, wishing they had stayed little and cute longer. That is the only basis of comparison I have, I'm afraid.

Kids can be troublesome too. My neighbor has a kid who is autistic. I'd never want to go through some of the things she goes through. She let him get away with too much without some form of repercussions, now he is at school, misbehaving and thinking that is acceptable. I guess with kids, when they know where the line is, they know not to cross it.
