That whole life admin piece is the real kicker, huh? Especially when family is to be considered - whether it’s older or younger family members, those that need that little bit of extra time (as in, anyone that isn’t fully independent) really does end up chewing into the other time you would use to do things like, you know, live life. That’s what I don’t understand about a lot of the debates going on around the world where the birthrate is dropping - people don’t feel they have the adequate time to raise a family. Couple it with the other side of the sandwich where you also have to help out older family members who aren’t nearly as independent as they were when we were younger, and suddenly you’re caught in the middle.
