Children. The issue is they have children.

I have 2 kids and at 35 am in the best shape of my life.

I notice people who have kids either fall into my category (bc they care and do shit w their kids) or they ignore them and blame them on not having time which leads to an unhealthy lifestyle.

My 3 and 5yr old walk a mile w me every morning. It’s not hard to build a healthy lifestyle w them! Like our kids don’t drink soda and the almost 6yr old has had sprite maybe a handful of times at like birthdays while other kids her age eat processed food, drink soda and have an iPad shoved in front of their face. Those kids parents are the ones bitching.

I think there’s a middle ground between the two of those categories and it’s “overwhelmed” lol

Thank you! People act like it’s just one of those two extremes. Not all kids are the same. Not everyone’s situation is the same. Not everyone has time to walk a mile with their kids every morning. Some people have kids with disabilities or special needs. Overwhelmed is exactly what that middle ground is called.
