I have kids that I raise, they are great kids, I love them to death but if someone thinks kids aren’t a burden (of any sort) than they’re lying.

    I don’t want children, but I wish I would know how to handle a child so I can help out family in case needed.

      You might want to take a look at The Montessori Child. It’s a book aimed at parents to make early childhood the best it can be for the kids.

        I’ve heard of the name before. Never knew what it was about. Sounds like a good read!

      Just ask the family member that you want to help what you should do. If the kids are young they like to talk your ear off or play. Many a kid used me as a make shift tree to climb on lol
