It’s the sheer volume of talking that gets you. My oldest kid just cycles through a list of unreasonable things he wishes he had, or asks me questions and then argues with me about the answer I give him. When he’s telling me about something he did, or how his day went, or anything along those lines, I’m all ears.

To be fair to the average parent (not people who give their kids ChatGPT what the fuck), I'm sure it's less "I hate it when my children talk to me" and more "After the 20th time hearing it the discussion about Frozen starts to get old" or "Hearing this Jim Gill song for the 50th time today makes me want to throw the speaker out a window"

I wonder how many parents literally just don't know what kids are like until they have them.

That's definitely the sentiment in that post. Really the most charitable interpretation of a post that starts with "I had a rough week". I'm sure most parents would gladly spent more time interacting with and listening to their children, but most do have to work 40+ hours a week plus housework plus all the other shit one has to do as an adult, plus having the existential burden of living under late stage capitalism, none of which someone else does for you just because you had a baby.
